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.

Enjoying quality college time.

Tips: I experienced a lot in starting, because there is lot of difference compared to India and USA and not only in cultural things. I didn't get any scholarships, I just got some allowance once. However, I'm fully satisfied with the country, course and university.

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.
