UMich vs UCLA for Wireless Communication/ Communication Networks

[shaileshdc]

Hi,

I have been admitted to these schools for MS. Currently facing the burning issue of selecting the better one. Although Gatech and UCSD decisions are yet to come, I'll most probably going to Umich or UCLA. Right now inclined more towards Umich.

I am interested in Research and might go for PhD after MS.

Need help in making the right choice.

This is how I would rank them in wireless comm:

UCSD

UCLA

GaTech

Umich

Just to add that UCSD is perhaps at the level of top 4 for wireless comm while others are all at a lower scale.

@dudulche : Thanks for the reply.

I am in 2 minds because of the rankings and the overall reputation of the schools is exactly the opposite. I am also looking at the job prospects in case i decide to quit after MS.

Can anybody throw some more light on the reputation of EE departments at these universities? How is internship and job opportunities scenario?

I got reject from Gatech. So I am left with UCLA and UMich and waiting for UCSD decision.
