MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering: Computer Engineering Concentration (CPE) - Batch of 2020

5.0

University of California - Irvine Campus has a warm and vibrant campus with amazing student life.

Tips: After coming to the USA, there was a great transition. The culture shifted tremendously. There was a full-funded scholarship available for master's programs. The program starts with three lectures in the morning, followed by practical sessions, and concludes with peer sessions to adjust the entire program. There are many student clubs and societies that support international students both financially and emotionally. Overall, I am very satisfied with this program here in California.

Dislikes (Value for money): The University of California-Irvine campus is a highly recommended university in the United States of America which provides students with excellent knowledge in Computer Engineering and PhD in Artificial Intelligence. The teaching faculty is at its best and it teaches a wide variety of subjects.
