<p>I am planning to get my master's degree outside US, prolly somewhere in Europe or Asia. Can I still get a nice and decent job in US? How do employers view these university? What 'bout the opportunities 'round the world?</p>
<p>Tokyo University
Tokyo Institute of Technology
ETH Zurich
Ecole Normale Superieure
Ecole Polytechnique
Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne
Technische Universitat Munchen </p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>My general impression is that Tokyo University and Ecole Normale Superieure are more prestigious than their counterparts. But admittedly, I am no expert on Japanese and French universities. Since most American employers will not be either, they may share my (limited) views. </p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p>
<p>Masters degree in what? And what a strange group of schools. No British ones?</p>
<p>Engineering. I don’t like UK. lol.</p>
<p>For ETH Zurich I am pretty sure you need to have Swiss citizenship because I was looking into it for a while too.
Munchen is really really good though. I’m fluent in German so I am thinking of applying there if I do not get into what I like in the US.</p>
<p>I’ve heard National University of Singapore (NUS) is pretty well known in the US and around the world and great for graduate programs, if you’re looking for another school in Asia.</p>
<p>For engineering, if you want to work in the US, it’s better to go to a US school. US companies do not do a lot of recruiting in foreign university for US-based jobs (if at all). You can always try to look for a job on your own, but it’s much harder to land a job.</p>
