Master of Professional Studies in Data Science - Batch of 2026
4.1
Career-focused program with good opportunities.
Tips: Be prepared for a practical career focused programme and manage time well. Weather can be harsh, so pack according. The cultural shift was manageable but adapting to the fast-paced lifestyle and communication style took some time. I did not receive a scholarship most are merit-based and competitive. The surrounding area felt unsafe at times, especially during late hours. I felt the need to be extra cautious off-campus which affected my sense of security. UMBC provides emergency alert systems, shuttle services, a well-lit path and blue light emergency phones throughout the campus to enhance student safety. Baltimore has a rich culture and vibrant food scene but I had a few comfortable encounters downtown at night. It's best to stay alert and avoid isolated areas.
Likes (Indian Food): There are many Indian restaurants and grocery stores nearby that offer authentic food which makes it easy to find meals similar to home. Local options include Indian Chinese Mediterranean and American restaurants. Casual meals cost $10-$20 mid-range restaurants are $25. I prefer cooking for myself as it's healthier and cost-effective though I eat out occasionally for a change.

The university has given me immense number of opportunities to build and grow.
Tips: Before joining UMBC, I think it’s important for students to know that it has strong ties to the biotech industry and is academically rigorous. The transition involved adapting to a wide range of cultures, along with independent learning. The faculty are highly knowledgeable and experts in their field. I did get a scholarship during my master’s studies. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the course and environment at UMBC.

Satisfied with my time here but a little too expensive.
Tips: I got paid an allowance once it was around $12000 however did not avail of any scholarship. My professors were all good, and the labs here are well-equipped. The only concern I have is that library is not open 24x7. There are many things to do in university here and if you have any talent you'll easily find your way up. Be sure to prepare your assignments on time. I am overall satisfied with my university although I would say that a fee is a bit higher as to where the university is located.
Likes (Internships): Relevant internships are there which give you hands on experience. The faculty and college help you with that and if you are an active member of any club, your connections will help you too. There is a portal called UMBCworks where you can find relevant internships and job opportunities with respect to your course.
Dislikes (Safety): There is only one reason why I have rated 3 on safety and that is because Baltimore as a city is a bit higher on crime rate than other cities in the United States. This city is like a remote city and you'll feel like you are in an outskirts area.

Good university, average environment.
Tips: Students should know that if you are planning to come here to feel city like vibes then you will be laid a bit back. This university is in the outskirts with forest surrounding and there isn't a lot of development here if I talk about the area. University itself is good, the extra-curriculars here are good as well. So before coming here at least talk to someone who has lived or studied around here so that you can have a fair idea.
Likes (Quality of faculty): My course here is data Science and I must say the faculty is good. They not only help you with your assignments and course curriculum but they are there for you when you are looking for jobs or internships. Try to build relationships with your professors when you are here and this is what will set you apart from others.
Dislikes (Student Life): To be in states is not like in India. Here you have to take a part-time job anyhow to make ends meet so you should be knowing how to balance your academic and personal life. There is not much to do outside as a student, don't expect it'll be like New york or California here. College has many clubs you can involve yourself with but again you should know how to manage your time.

Not much around in the area but the college is decent.
Tips: This college is best for information Science, computer Science and data Science courses and IAS a Data Science can confirm that. As compared to other colleges in USA, the tuition fee here is affordable and the placement rate is also decent. In general, academics here is good but if you're looking for social life and off- college enjoyment you'll not get much here in this area there are only a few state parks to roam around and sometimes I feel that students want more when they come to the USA. But if you are here for strict study purposes and getting settled down here then you'll not feel it. Jobs here are listed on UMBCworks and you can benefit from it. Scholarships are also there so be sure before enrolling here to check if you can avail of any scholarship and apply for the same.

The longer the name of university, the longer the list of opportunities.
Tips: I come from South India and have met many fellow students from South India here. All I'm saying is that no doubt you are in a totally different environment you'll still meet people from your place and background but try not to only sick to it, open yourself towards other people's beliefs and opinions that's how it works here in US. It's a good place to make new friends and develop lifelong relationships so if you are someone who wants that US is definitely for you. I'm satisfied with my university and that I'm in US, there are a plethora of opportunities here starting from part-time, to internships and getting settled here. Also, the university is very sporty you'll know after coming here.
Likes (Safety): I didn't encounter any un-safe event myself in this area and thus, I have rated 5 when it comes up to safety and security. All I would say is that be cautious of your environment nobody will harm you if you don't provoke or poke others. As a student I believe that you should always be humble towards people and if anyone provokes you don't act up to it. Baltimore is a diverse region so make sure to respect diversity.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are many Indian restaurants in Baltimore like Namaste Baltimore, kumari and Ambassador but eating there will cost you a lot as a student say 2 samosas will cost you around 500 Indian rupees and I don't think that's worth it even if I consider the taste. So as an Indian student studying here in Baltimore US my suggestion would be to cook yourself. It's more convenient, easy on pockets and more of an acquired taste.

Excellent faculty and educational opportunities
Tips: UMBC offers excellent educational opportunities. The lecturers are extremely educated, and they always encourage you to do your best with difficult homework, classwork and tests. Nothing to damage you, yet everything to motivate you to achieve. You have a lot of options as well. There are always office hours, study sessions, and online discussions forums, as well as the library and other students in your classes. There are also TAs who are quite helpful. The individuals that work here are what make this school what it is. People here normally do their own thing and are concerned about what others think of them. I adore and admire these folks. The housing is quite good here. I reside on campus in an apartment with four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a complete kitchen and a laundry room. It is also pretty spacious. These locations are well-equipped.

UMBC needs to be modernised
Tips: UMBC has its reputation but in reality the university and the surrounding area definitely needs to be worked on. It's more like an old university in the middle of a hilly forest area. The faculty members and management do a great job and assist students wherever. UMBC is expensive compared to other universities.
Likes (Internships): The internship opportunities are good as UMBC has its reputation. But a student needs to actively look out for internships in order to get one. Career fairs are regularly conducted by the university and many companies come in to offer internships and jobs to students.
Dislikes (Safety): As far as Baltimore is concerned it is one of the highest crime rate cities in USA. There is no proper development of the area surrounding the university which makes it scary and unsafe with animals wandering around in silence it feels more like living in a forest.

It is worth it if you are ready to work.
Tips: It is a research oriented university. So, be prepared to work hard. The syllabus will not be easy and also don't get disappointed if you cannot get an assistantship. The assistantships are luck based and given out randomly. But you'll have ample opportunities to work on campus.
Likes (Public transportation): The area is well connected by bus and also with the University shuttle services. The shuttles are free if you have your college ID card. Other than that, you have metro trains and buses. It can take you from point A to B at a cheap price.
Dislikes (Safety): It is not very safe. The crime rate is high. There are lots of unsafe areas here. People don't go out when it's dark. You should choose your neighborhood carefully before you rent a place off campus.

The University has multi option to choose and career track.
Tips: The student should do well research about the course and the topics to be covered in the course. There is the basic or fundamental for every course if you are doing Masters/ PHD or bachelors. one should be clear and focused to have practical knowledge rather than the bookish concepts as the way of teaching is totally different from India
Likes (Post study jobs): When your masters is completed, the UMBC is surrounded by 4 states which have plethora of jobs and internship options. Washington, Penn, New York, Maryland, Ohio and many more have options in various domains such as insurance, health, education, banking, government projects which gives student to do the job and well paid as per the state policy.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food is the blend of all the culture and spices such as nutmeg, turmeric, cumin, cinnamon, coriander and many more which help to fight from various infections and inflammation. Each state in India has their own cuisine and method of cooking.

A good university but not the best
Tips: It's difficult to manage everything. It feels overwhelming but by time you'll eventually get used to it. No scholarships are provided here mind that and Florida is really costly when it comes to renting food or cabs. You need to be really fast while registering for classes. They'll open it even before you get a visa make sure to enroll.
Likes (Safety): The crime rate is less here. People around are good and the communities we live in are very safe. The university is diverse and police are always there to help on campus. There are several facts for us to be safe. Just make sure to mind your own business and everything just works out.
Dislikes (Value for money): For this amount, I would've got a better college with a scholarship. There's less opportunity for international students here and scholarships are less too. Tuition fees are costly, it would be really helpful if they've provided scholarships. On-campus job opportunities are less too.

Dislikes (Part time work): It’s difficult to find jobs. We are not getting part-time on campus and we need to transfer funds from home for certain periods of time due to more number of students it’s hard to find jobs on campus. We need to keep on trying and applying for jobs. So it’s better to apply for other jobs instead of in food courts.

I’ve also interacted with so many new people, and this has been a big help in my personality development.
Dislikes (Indian Food): You have very few options out here, and even those are expensive. Therefore, it's best if you learn how to cook, which you will eventually do anyway. I'm from South India, and I don't have access to my spicy food. Do not expect to get everything like you get in India.

The university has a great faculty, transportation facilities are excellent.
Tips: Students should know that there are no scholarships for international students and if you look at the academics, I'm pursuing my Masters in Computer Science. The syllabus is obviously updated but you should give more time prepping yourself and you should not rely on classes or professors only. Overall, the University is good.
Likes (Public transportation): If you choose living in Boca Raton, Delray, Hollywood etc. You may find public transportation either bus or train. And fare lies between 2$ to 5$. I say it's affordable. Usually there will be a bus for every 15 to 30 minutes. In weekends the schedule will be changed. Its like one for every 45 minutes. Honesty, you may not require bus to go university in week offs. If you prefer uber they gonna ask your assets for sure.
Dislikes (Part time work): The average payout lies in the range of 10 to 12$ per hour. On campus opportunities are mostly based on references. However they are limited. But, I suggest not to depend on both on and off campus opportunities. Fly for your study, your Masters and your life.

Big cities with lots of opportunities.
Tips: FAU is similar to every PG college in the US when it comes to academics, but the city you will live in is a very happening place and lots of foreigners are there, unlike other Indian cities. The city is big and you will not need to worry about part-time jobs.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): FAU is very diverse in the students, as they are coming from different countries. Having students from different countries would improve our skills and also help the students to overcome their fear of interacting with new people.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Faculty is very cooperative and understanding when it comes to academics. They give a lot of assignments to complete but it helps improve our experience which is required to build our knowledge. The assignment also helps us with interviews.
