<p>I am a graduate international student from India. I have got offer in both Clemson University and SUNY-Stony Brook for MS in Electrical Engineering with specialization in Communication and Signal Processing.I have not been offered financial assistance by both. Not yet able to decide which one to go for.</p>
<p>I would like to know what are the relative strengths/weaknesses of these 2 universities, particularly w.r.t.
a) Chances of getting funding at a later stage
b) Opportunities of doing CPT/OPT and after-MS job opportunities
c) Academic environment, especially in Electrical Engineering area
d) Any other area of importance</p>
<p>Finally, any suggestion as to what should be my final destination Clemson or SUNYSB?</p>
<p>Princeton Review surveys college students at all American universities and based on those responses has Clemson ranked #2 in the country this year for “Happiest Students” and Stony Brook #3 in the country for “Least Happy Students.”</p>
<p>go to Clemson! I don’t really know much about the masters level but I know that Clemson has a better learning environment and people are very happy here and Clemson is slightly higher ranked on an undergraduate level when it comes to engineering.</p>
<p>If you have any specific questions about campus life or anything about Clemson, let me know! (I’m a student there)</p>
<p>I live not far from Stony Brook. Didn’t know they even had electrical engineering.</p>
<p>Not sure if it matters to you, but Stony Brook is on Long Island, home to many people from India. Don’t know about Clemson or the Clemson area, but you would have no problem feeling “at home” on Long Island. It’s also about an hour from New York City and its diversity.</p>
