Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering - Batch of 2023

Great academia but comparatively less exposure into the industry
Tips: I did experience a cultural shift. Since Tufts is a private college, most of the students were established in wealth and culture seemed hard to fit in with. 15% scholarship on tuition fee, I availed it when I accepted the offer letter. I am well satisfied with the course and country.
Likes (Part time work): Many on-campus employment is available. Off-campus jobs are not allowed during coursework. On campus is manageable- either time of your choosing in the morning or the evening after classes or on weekends. Average pay is 15 dollars per hour ( 20 hr per week limit).
Dislikes (Internships): There are good internship opportunities but fewer company-university relationships. Most intern opps rise through networking with alumni-employees but not through a university-industry relationship. Maybe the university can do more on building hands-on industry exposure through internship programs.
