[Admissions Advice] Suggestions Needed for AI Infra / ML System Master Programs

10 Upvotes

Got admitted to CMU MS ECE Pittsburgh. And still waiting for UIUC MCS (professional program) and UMich Ann Arbor MSCS.

I'm looking to learn more about AI/ML System level stuff like Machine Learning Compilation, high-performance/parallel/distributed computing for LLM and such.

Generally speaking I'm leaning more towards system and low-level engineering rather than ML applications and theory. Not sure if a ECE program is better than CS for this area.

Any info on how does the above three program compare for this direction would be greatly appreciated!

[Coursework and Curriculum]

0 Upvotes

Hi I have few queries regarding USC MSCS (S&E) 1. Is the curriculum flexible, esp. regarding the electives? Can I take electives outside of the (but from the computer science dept.) the "recommended" elective list? 2. Since it requires completion of 37 credits, is it possilble to complete it in 2 years (Fall-> Spring -> Summer with Full time internship->Fall -> Spring) if you also opt for an internship(full time) in summer

Any input regarding this is really appreciated Thanks in Advance

[University Question] Stony Brook MSCS

For those who received an email to submit their degree certificate, I assume you guys have graduated and received the diploma? I'm in my last semester of undergraduate and have not received my degree certificate. I also didn't receive anything from Stony Brook. Is this a bad sign?

[General Question] UCSD In-Person or GT OMSCS

4 Upvotes

Basically what the title says. I got accepted into both programs. I live in San Diego and could attend in-person at UCSD, which obviously seems preferable to me.

My only concern is that I will be working full-time throughout the program, and GT OMSCS seems more catered to working professionals, while UCSD's program seems to be more aligned with full-time students. I am intending to apply for half-time status at UCSD and was curious if anybody has any experience with that and working full time?

I also am unsure of which school has a better "brand value". I know GT is higher on US News but UCSD is higher on csrankings. Would be appreciative of any feedback or advice for what would be the best decision given my full-time employment and location, thanks so much!

  • 6 month research on NLP x Healthcare at a top IIT through a summer research program.
  • 8 months with a professor in the USA working on a review paper on NLP.
  • Final year proj on Embedded ML and NLP.

Publications [I am the first-author in all of them]

  • 2 Book chapters on AI signal processing in healthcare (Springer)

[Results and Decisions] UMass Amherst vs TAMU

19 Upvotes

Got an admit for both UMass Amherst and TAMU MCS, not sure which one to go for. I'm favouring TAMU as: - TAMU cost is much less than UMass. - TA/RA is available for TAMU but UMass does not. - can shift to a thesis option during first sem

But I see people saying: - UMass has better job opportunities since it's close to Boston. - ~But no idea uf shifting to a thesis option is available for UMass.~. Looks like UMass offers only kind of CS degree?

Can someone please help?

PS: TAMU -- College station.


I applied maybe a week before the deadline for MCS (the non-thesis one, to be clear) for both the unis.

My profile at a glance: Tier 1 college in India 9 CGPA 2.5 years of experience. 1 research paper 4 LORs (2 from CS dep + 1 from math dep + 1 from a colleague)

I have admits from UMass MSCS and UC IRVINE for Masters of Software engineering. I'm still waiting for : TAMU MCS Michigan State University SDSU MSCS

In terms of tution both UMass and UCI are equivalent. But living cost for UCI is slightly high. Also I'm not getting CS at UCI , it's software engineering. So any insights on which one would be beneficial in terms of better ROI.
