MS in Psychology (Industrial/Organizational) - Batch of 2026

Offered by California State University Long Beach

3.8

Best for postgrad than undergrad.

Tips: My transition was both peaceful and gradual. The initial two weeks were spent running around, trying to get the hang of things, opening my bank accounts and after that it became more peaceful. It takes time to build solid friend groups, although people are friendly there is a sense of being reserved. Classes are well planned and I would say I am satisfied here.

Good value for money to study here.

Tips: Great value of money as compared to a lot of other California universities. The level of academics and teaching did not disappoint and the weather remains beautiful throughout the year. The campus has a very free and friendly environment and people are naturally easygoing. Have learnt a lot here.

Dislikes (Part time work): Very limited availability and scope of part time jobs here mainly because of government regulations and the opportunities within campus are limited. Also sometimes the academic schedules make it tricky to maintain a part time long term especially during the final season.

Great place and people.

Tips: I did not face major cultural shocks. People here are quite warm and friendly and helpful when needed. The orientation was useful and after setting up my accounts and registration I could live as I please. The university has a dedicated team that answers your questions and offer assistance before committing. Good experiences.

Best return on investment.

Tips: You can get on campus jobs here in 4-5 months if you apply seriously and also, people here are friendly and will get along easily. You should complete your core subjects which will help you give the comps exam early and you can focus on internships or jobs at the end of graduation.

Likes (Student Life): Everyone is friendly here and there are many on campus opportunities to meet new friends. They organise events and meetups weekly, which help find connections and also clubs are great options to interact with people here. Other than that, the city itself is very peaceful.

Dislikes (Internships): Due to current job conditions, it's hard to find internships. You can get it's not completely impossible but you have to dedicate your time to applying and increasing your skills in a particular direction. You should attend conferences and make connections with similar people.

MS Information Systems (STEM) - Batch of 2025

Offered by California State University Long Beach

Needs better support for internships and decent academics.

Tips: Internship support is limited. The faculty quality is consistent. Some professors were supportive, but not everyone. Academics (curriculum) at least for the MSIS could be improved as it only offers two tracks - ML & Cybersecurity. There is scope for improvement in academics. The vibe is good. The campus is small with limited food options.

Likes (Public transportation): Long Each has an efficient and accessible public transportation network. Getting around the city and nearby areas is easy even without a personal vehicle. Public transportation is quite affordable-students can get discounted passes by Tap Card - LBT.

Dislikes (Internships): Finding internships largely depends on the individual effort rather than university support. There are occasional career fair and workshops, students have to rely on different platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed to find an internship. For me, CSULB did not help me in finding internship.
