Opinions on CMU MS in Computational Biology

Hello!

I was just admitted to the masters in computational biology program at CMU and I was wondering if there are any graduates or current students willing to offer their impression of the program. Did you like the teachers? Is it a nice environment to be in? Would you consider it good preparation for full time industry positions or PhD programs?

I am finishing up an undergrad Bioinformatics degree at a decent school for my major; I have some background and research experience in the field. Currently deciding between
a master’s at CMU and working at a lab for a year in order to apply to PhD’s next year.

Thank you for your input!
