kp27051991 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 HI I have admits from Univ of florida and Univ of maryland,college park for Masters in CHemical Engineering.Both are no-funded . However the program in florida is a non-thesis and in Maryland it is thesis option. Do i have a better chance for an RA in maryland. ?? also i had contacted a professor from Maryland and he was willing to provide me Assistance, though nothing official. I am confused because Univ of Maryland is expensive compared to florida.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rising_star Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 If they're not offering you funding now, don't presume that you'll get a RA after showing up at either place. Hold off and apply again unless you want to pay full price for your degree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kp27051991 Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 Thank you for your reply! Though there is no offical word of funding , almost everyone ends up getting RA or TA or sm other assistantship ( tats wat i heard from frnds) but the confusing part is tat UFL is closer to TEXAS ( which is the hub to get jobs for chem) and UMD is farther from it.Will this affect my job prospects.Also ,UMD's is closer to NASA, and other NATIONAL sectors of the country , Me, being an international might not be eligible to get internships or jobs there, shud i need to worry abt this, or are there other chemical engineering based private companies arnd ? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
