<p>hey guys,</p>

<p>I got admitted into CMU and this other school for material science and engineering. I am currently trying to decide between the two. My main question is, what is good about CMU? </p>

<p>Additional questions
1. How are the professors here for engineering? for physical sciences? I looked at the rankings and it seems that though CMU is supreme for engineering, its physical sciences seem to be lagging behind a bit. And because engineering is tied with physical sciences, I want to be able to go to a school that gives me solid foundation in physical sciences. So what do you guys think?</p>

<li><p>How is the competition among the students?</p></li>
<li><p>Internship and research opportunities for an international student like me?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Take a look at [Department</a> of Materials Science & Engineering](<a href=“http://www.materials.cmu.edu/ugrad/]Department”>Page not found!)
The department at CMU is incredibly well organized. You can start research as a freshman. Research on campus is open to international students. </p>

<p>You should contact some of the professors in the dept. I am sure they will be very helpful.</p>
