I am struggling to make a decision between the 2 schools. Some of the variables I am considering are; - resume value - connections - Job prospects Based on your set of variables, which would you pick? Also, I am only choosing to go for masters, because of the chance that I won't get a job offer as soon as I graduate.
UT Austin has an in-person part time Masters program in Software Engineering.
Atlanta is a shithole
School doesn’t matter. I went to ivy. Every school will have somebody that will have connections to get u an interview. The goal of school is to get a job or start a job. In the long run, importance of school diminishes - what you did in your job matters. Make connections and learn how to work with others. That’s what school is for.
Is this the online program? You tryna specialize in ML?
its really UIUC > GT == UT, if its online look for program with good cloud/Systems/Networking/DB courses along with an ML/DL/NLP and the course ratings are high. algo you can do leetcode. build up github portfolio with projects from those classes
does github portfolio with classroom projects actually do anything?
Watching, from what I’ve heard GT is cheaper and still looks better on a r resume
