Wayne State University provides a strong curriculum for Masters in Chemical Engineer.
Tips: The college has great infrastructure and facilities. However, the winters are cold, especially since the college is located in the north. Also, there are no Indian stores or Walmarts nearby, so you have to travel on weekends to get groceries. Finally, on-campus jobs are competitive, so be prepared to apply.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I was fortunate to have well-skilled and knowledgeable faculty at Wayne State University. They were very precise and to the point, and their teaching helped me land a job after graduation. I found them very approachable, and I was able to reach out to them even after hours if I had any questions.
Dislikes (Internships): I am a chemical engineering student at Wayne State University. Finding an internship in this field is tough, but not impossible. The university holds multiple job fairs, and if you are lucky and have the skills, you can land an internship. The university also guides students to find internships.

Make sure to find accommodation beforehand.
Tips: Students should find accommodation before joining. Also, be more attentive and take care of your surrounding. Students should complete all the major stuff of shopping before joining and can call the college for more details about the college.

Great college, good options for internship and on campus jobs.
Tips: The dorms are a great option for accommodation. The student life at Wayne State is great and there are great activities within the university that students can participate in. However, students should be aware that the winters in Michigan can be harsh, so be sure to take advantage of the safe walks if you need to make a commute at night.
Likes (Student Life): There are good activities carried out by the college, including a job fair and good dorms. The student centre is equipped with a lot of games for kids to play and hang out. The college is close to downtown, so students can go there in the evenings. There are also restaurants in the area where students can go and spend time.
Dislikes (Value for money): The college is expensive compared to the city. Off-campus accommodation is cheaper than on-campus accommodation, but on-campus accommodation is a better option in terms of safety and infrastructure. I also felt that the tuition and fees could have been lower, and there were not many scholarship opportunities.

The coursework is updated and each student has to participate and interact in classes.
Tips: The coursework I took aligned with what I learned previously in my undergrad and was helpful in my job as well. It is extremely important to be prepared and organized. The race for internships starts earlier than you might expect, so be ready with your resume and practice interviews. It is important to join activities and spend time with others as much as possible as it will help you in building connections will might be helpful in the future. As for being an international student, I definitely experienced a bit of culture shock and loneliness. But, if you're proactive about getting involved, you'll find some great ways to spend your time with others here. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.
