katherinnan Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Cancer epigenetics is my interest area. Now I got two offers from Rutgers and UIUC. I'm really confused which school I should choose. Please give me some advices. Thank you~
fuzzylogician Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 What are the funding packages for each school? Did you get along better with professors at one school vs. the other? What kind of project will you be doing at each school? Does the program at one or the other school offer more relevant courses? More research opportunities? More travel funding? Internship options? Collaborations? Libraries, labs and other resources? Does one have more relevant faculty than the other, who could serve on your dissertation committee or who do relevant work? What is the placement record of both schools (both potential advisors)? What is the time-to-completion at both schools? Do you have a weather preference? How important is it to you to be near an international airport? Details.
