Hey folks,

Could really use some advice.  I didn't study Computer Science in undergrad (ChemE), and have been teaching public high school for 10 years post-college.  I've been teaching CS for the past 3 years, and applied to M.S. / M. Eng. programs for CS this year.  I got into:

1. Cornell M.Eng. (Not Cornell Tech!)

2. UMass-Amherst

3. Georgia Tech

I'm super happy about these choices, but need some advice.  I live in MA and while the in-state tuition is attractive, isn't Cornell and GATech that much better of programs?  I'm interested in AI, ML, etc.

Thanks in advance!

I don't know much about the top two but, in a nutshell, Ga Tech is one of the top 5 or 6 engineering grad schools in the world.  The internship/job market is booming for those coming out with advanced degrees from that school. And the campus is lovely, the school spirit very strong, and the professors among the best.

GaTech is insanely good for the CS. You can diversify your skill set on HPC, AI-ML, HCI or other side. Coursework is in line with industry standards, latest things projects and other aspects I believe.
