daniexia Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 both are Computer Science PhD program. Duke has a higher reputation. UC-Santa Barbara (UCSB)'s engineering school is a lot better than Duke's. According to usnews, CS@Duke ranks 27, while CS@UCSB ranks 35. But National Research Council has a different rank. It ranks UCSB as top 10, while Duke is about 20. Which factor will you consider while making a decision? What is your decision? Thanks a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TropicalCharlie Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 habanero is right. Go with the one that best suits you. I did my undergrad at ucsb and worked in research there for five years afterward. Feel free to pm me if you have any questions about santa barbara.
