Master of Science in Computer Science - Batch of 2025

3.8

Nature centric and research-oriented.

Tips: The coursework is really great. The professors are friendly and helpful. You might get attracted to assistantship programs but their policies keep on changing so it is not guaranteed you will get one. Utah's weather can be extreme during winters and it is very silent here after 7 or 8 PM. Utah is a safe place compared to other states. We have campus police patrolling on campus, and there is also an option to book a safe ride, which will drop you from your building to the nearest public bus or train station. I myself work till 11 PM a lot of days on campus and it's very safe. Overall, I am highly satisfied with my experiences.

Dislikes (Indian Food): We just have one small counter of an Indian restaurant on the entire campus compared to other universities who have a variety of food options. Other cuisine options are also limited, all outlets are in one single building, so if you need lunch at Engineering building, you will need to walk all the way up to the Union building.

MS in Information Systems - Batch of 2024

4.5

Huge safe campus, helpful people and many part-time opportunities.

Tips: This Master of Science in Information Systems course is very easy. It's not difficult, and the subjects don't go into much depth. They just touch base on them. Each subject is taught in one class for 10 weeks. This is a good course if you just want to update your current skills. Great faculty. They are very helpful and knowledgeable, they help you with projects and assistant opportunities, you can seek their guidance if you want to do research, they have many years of experience in teaching and research, and you get varied options to choose from. It is difficult to get a green card for Indians because of the long wait time. You cannot get citizenship. Visa sponsorship is another problem. Companies won't sponsor your H1B. There is no way to immigrate permanently unless you invest a huge amount of money.

4.1

Energetic and vibrant college life.

Tips: I have become very involved in campus activities and networking, which is new for me as I used to be very introverted. The campus here is beautiful, and the resources are fully utilised to ensure a good experience for students. There are also mental health services for those who might be struggling.

Likes (Student Life): Campus is constantly brimming with activities and the student-formed clubs and organisations are very active. Sports is something that Utah takes a lot of pride in and every time there is a tournament, it brings the whole campus together. In addition, there are new events every semester to look forward to.

It has been a great journey so far.
