Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering - Batch of 2026

Offered by Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI)

4.7

WPI has a friendly and peaceful campus.

Tips: The professors are top-notch, and they provide excellent instruction. The university has a good number of labs that allow students to gain practical knowledge. The university also provides a variety of events to keep students engaged, and the campus has a very good sports centre where students can enjoy playing a variety of sports.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): The US offers multiple immigration routes such as H-1B visa L-1 leading to a green card. This country gives a future for good skilled persons. They can gain great experience in this country. For those with high-demand skills, advanced education, and expertise, chances can be relatively good in this country.

Dislikes (Part time work): Most employers want students to provide their identity and previous work experience in document form. Some employers pay in checks, which is risky. There are very few part-time jobs near Worcester, and they are quickly filled by other students.

Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering - Batch of 2026

Offered by Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI)

4.4

WPI Aerospace program excels in providing a hand on innovative education.

Tips: When you apply to WPI, you will automatically be considered for scholarships. We have a university bus shuttle to travel from one place to another, and a WhatsApp group where students can share rides. Our department mainly focuses on engine parts and finite element analysis, but not computational fluid dynamics, so please research what you like before applying.

Likes (Safety): There are many Indian restaurants in the next town, and Indian markets and Patel Brothers shops where you can buy groceries. There is also an app called 'Wee' that delivers groceries to your door. So, don't worry about finding food that you like.

Dislikes (Internships): To apply for an internship, you need to have completed two semesters or eight terms and earned 16 credits. In some cases, you may also need to be a citizen of the country in which the internship is located. You should start applying for internships as soon as you arrive. You will also need to have a reference when applying.
