Poly-NYU vs RIT

<p>Hello everyone!
I've been admitted to both universities for master of computer science.
Now I have to make my choice between these two.
And I'd like to hear some options from you.
Which school offers a better cs master between poly-nyu and RIT?
Which one do you suggest if my main point is to find a good job after graduation?</p>

<p>I don't know anything about NYU-Poly, but I have done a good deal of research on RIT.</p>

<p>RIT focuses strongly on coops and job preparedness. By graduation, a RIT student will have already done a good deal of work in their chosen field. From what I've read, the school takes job placement very seriously.</p>

<p>rit is up in the New York state.</p>

<p>I recently heard that NYU and Poly faculty awarded research funding.</p>

<p>※ Tuesday, Mar 03, 2009</p>

<p>NYU Provost David McLaughlin and Poly Provost Erich Kunhardt today announced the first 15 research collaborations between NYU and NYU-Poly faculty to receive “seed” funding from a special competitive research pool established as part of the affiliation between the two institutions. The grants are meant to strengthen collaborations between the schools and serve as a platform for seeking future extramural funding.
The projects - which collectively received over $800,000 - were chosen from among 38 proposals on the basis of the quality of the proposed science. They include research on a device to prevent epileptic seizures, an exploration of how the structure of proteins changes in response to forces and environment, and new approaches to security and privacy in today’s technologically-drive world, among others.
The collaboration grants come on the heels of two major external grants to projects involving NYU and NYU-Poly faculty: the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center, funded with $7.2 million from the National Science Foundation, and the Games for Learning Institute, which received $1.5 million in funding from Microsoft Research.
Provost McLaughlin said, “When NYU started down this path with Poly, this was just the outcome I envisioned: a burst of inspiration that allowed our scholars to pursue novel areas of research with new colleagues. I am very proud of these grantees, and I offer them my congratulations on their outstanding proposals. And I would like to thank everyone for their work in creating and selecting these ambitious and excellent proposals.”</p>

<p>thanks a lot
any more ideas?</p>

<p>bump bump bump</p>

<p>Hi frnds,</p>

<p>I have gt admit frm foll:
-nyu poly
-gmu
-njit</p>

<p>I have applied fr MS in Telecommunication and m confused between nyu poly n gmu.
Pls give ur suggestions to make the best choice.</p>

<p>Thanks!!</p>

<p>My brother went to rpi and people there make fun of rit…
I’m going to Nyu poly next year and they talk a lot about their computer programs. Also, Nyu Poly is ranked in the top ten for graduate salaries. First year average salary is in the middle 60’s</p>
