Which one is better, Purdue ECE or UCSD ECE?

Greetings! I think the engineering school of UCSD is better~

BTW, I've got an offer from Nanoengineering program, but it did't state clearly about the fellowship.....

May I ask that did you receive fellowship from School of Engineering in UCSD?

Although Purdue has a higher ranking in the US grad engineering programs, I would go to UCSD.. but that's because of my field..

So let me re-phrase: It depends on what you're looking for.. If you're in EE-systems (Communications and signal processing) I would definetley recommend UCSD since they really have amazing guys in this field there (and trust me on this one since I applied to UCSD and considered Purdue, skimming all their faculty's research).. If however you want computer stuff (Networking, AI, etc) then I would say Purdue.. The rest of the fields (Electronics, Electromagnets) are beyond my scope of advice!

Best of luck
