zoom1 Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 Planning to apply for the following universities for Msc. ETH, KTH, Imperial College London and Delft TU Which one would you go for ? -ETH is almost free with low tuition fees, but the life is expensive -KTH charges too much for tuition fee and upon receiving a tuition fee waiver, it would be pretty much the same with ETH in terms of the money will be spent for life expenses. (Sweeden is as expensive as Zurich as far as I know). -Delft requires a tuition fee waiver as well since it is expensive. But not sure how expensive the life in Netherlands. -Imperial College's program is for 1 year. So, even though London is expensive, the duration is half of the others, which eventually affect the life expenses. Among those options the best ones are ETH and Imperial for sure. But just want to hear your opinions/experiences. And also which one would you go for if we suppose options are narrowed down and need to make a decision among ETH and Imperial. Thanks in advance.
jimmy_01 Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 Imperial and ETH are definitely superior in terms of name recognition and international exposure (over the other institutions your considering). But I would choose Imperial....The connections you get from this university will help you in securing a nice job after graduation. My brother went to ETH for his Msc and Imperial/Oxford for this PhD (collaborated with both universities), and he told me that you get a lot more connections at Imperial, which is really important since the job market in Europe isn't going too good.
