MS in Computer Science - Batch of 2027

Offered by University of Massachusetts Amherst

4.3

The university is a bit on the expensive side but worth it.

Tips: Be prepared to apply mathematics. Every course in this university is mathematically heavy, and you will learn a lot as well. Mass Amherst does not provide any scholarships to master's students. But overall, the university is amazing for people who want to explore research and learn cutting-edge technologies.

Likes (Post study jobs): A lot of big tech companies do offer sponsor visas, and seniors in our college seem to be getting placed well. Our seniors have been placed in development roles like web development and cloud. Machine learning engineer roles are also available to students.

Dislikes (Part time work): Only dining jobs are available to graduation students, making it really convenient. Also, no research assistantship or teaching assistantship is available. Hourly positions are sometimes available in summer, but plan to have all finance already sorted.

MS in Biostatistics - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Massachusetts Amherst

Great campus and an eye-opening experience.

Tips: Don't be afraid of change and allow things to happen to you. That's my conclusion about studying abroad in general, especially here. Some programs here are seriously underrated, and I feel I've gained a more in-depth knowledge here than I would have anywhere else. The campus is great, and you'll feel safe here throughout.

MBA with MS in Civil Engineering - Batch of 2026

Offered by University of Massachusetts Amherst

An interesting sand meaningful experience.

Tips: I have transitioned well after coming here, and a lot of people back home can see the difference in my personality as well. The classes and coursework are intense, and you'll have to rely on yourself rather than expect too much spoon-feeding here. A lot of learning happens in group settings via projects and fieldwork.

Dislikes (Internships): With internships and jobs in general, a lot depends on your own network and ability to put yourself out there. There is not too much that the university involves itself with. What can help is striking a connection with professors and being active in classes and office hours.

There is an Indian student union and many events on campus. Try to participate in them.

Tips: I mainly chose to study here because of the affordability and strong faculty for my programme. Be ready for rough winters and get your winter essentials ready in time. The labs are well-equipped and huge, encouraging you to go all out. There is an Indian student union as well, and many other such cultural clubs on campus to be a part of.

Dislikes (Part time work): You are not really allowed to work part-time in a lot of places in the United States. Moreover, with my work schedule, it was really implausible to find time. You can look for roles within the campus, but that is also limited in scope and opportunities.

UMass Amherst: A leading public research university.

Tips: UMass Amherst is a big, vibrant campus with lots of energy and a strong reputation for academics, especially in majors like engineering, computer science, and business. The campus is full of amazing resources such as modern labs, huge libraries, and tons of support for internships, research, and job hunting. The professors are really knowledgeable and supportive but be ready for some healthy competition in popular classes. The coursework can be challenging, so staying on top of your schedule is key. You’ll need to find a good balance between studying and taking part in all the fun stuff happening on campus. One unique thing about UMass is its big focus on sustainability going green is a huge part of life here, and you’ll notice it everywhere. Financially, it’s a good idea to plan ahead. Living in Massachusetts is great, but it can be expensive. Housing fills up fast, so look into your options early. The university offers scholarships and financial aid, but they can be competitive, so it’s worth applying to as many as you can. When it comes to social life, there’s never a dull moment. Whether you’re into clubs, sports, music, or just hanging out, there’s always something happening. The town of Amherst has a cosy, small-town feel, but it’s not overflowing with things to do, so students often find their own fun on campus or go exploring in nearby areas. Overall, UMass Amherst is an excellent choice for students seeking a quality education in a supportive, dynamic environment.
