MS- Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley (Software Engineering) vs. Brown (Computer Science)

[Alex_]

Hi,

I had received the Master of Science admission of Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley Campus(Software Engineering) and Brown University(Computer Science).

I feel really hard to make a choice between them because CMU-SV has a high reputation in CS and SE, and the Silicon Valley is a wonderful place full of job opportunity,

meanwhile, Brown has a good CS Education, it has a lot of great course, and it's Ivy League.

CMU-SV is 1 year program, it's a professional master, project oriented.

while Brown is 1 and a half.

I am an international student from Asia, and undergrad major is Software Engineering.

Can anybody give me some advices? Is 1 year enough for me to find a job in U.S.?

If I wanted to go into industry after my Masters, I would go for CMU as it has a great reputation which implies you have a great chance of landing a good job.
