<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I am an international student applying for my Masters in Electrical Engineering. I am specifically looking to study Communications, Networks and Systems. Considering my academic profile, I am trying to shortlist colleges on the basis of-</p>
<ol>
<li>US news ranking of Electrical Engg department</li>
<li>Course content</li>
<li>Areas of research - whether there is research carried out in the field of my interest</li>
<li>Number of MS offered and percentage of international applicants accepted</li>
<li>Job prospects and placement record of university - I need help in this department. I have no idea about where companies recruit from - in the field of communications.</li>
</ol>
<p>I also wanted to know whether there are other factors I need to look into. Let me know if details about my academic profile will help you to help me :-)</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
