<p>I am trying to look at grad school, just graduated with 3.45 B.S comp sci and minor in Biology. Round up to a 3.5
lol.</p>
<p>Anyway where do you think I should apply. I have University of Southern California as an interest. I want to do Computer engineering.</p>
<p>My ECs were pretty good HOSA, cs club, research, and interned for a hospital for 1 year every Friday. Had an for 4 month internship for a Fortune 500 company. Who also offered me a full time which I am taking to work for a year. </p>
<p>After working I plan to apply to grad school. Please be kind of enough to throw out a few good college names which would fit my credentials </p>
<p>This is really something you should be doing for yourself. You don’t list your research or professional interests, and choosing a graduate program (even a MS program) is really based on that. Like let’s say you want to work on robotics, you would choose a program that had people doing research on robotics. Or if you really wanted to work in software engineering, you might choose a program that had close ties with software companies. It’s such a personal process that getting suggestions at a very general site like this one is difficult (although you may try thegradcafe).</p>
<p>Also you should know that your ECs don’t really matter, other than the internship that turned into a job.</p>
<p>Thank you for the in-depth response. However, I am looking at Computer engineering which would help me land a job at aviation firm to develop/maintain aviation software. So I guess software engineering. Which school would be the best for this. </p>
<p>Are there aerospace engineeering departments where aviation software work is being done?</p>
<p>Why would you need a degree in Computer Engineering to maintain aviation software. You BS in CS is good enough. Have you try to apply for the job, do you have a job yet?</p>
<p>DrGoogle. </p>
<p>Yes I have a job as a software developer. I cant state the name due to company policy. However, I do plan on working with them to gain experience with corporate level development and exposure. Then apply for MS, as for the reason for choosing CE I want to gain more invaluable rigor of analyticak skills that are known to be exercised during engineering programs. Also MS means more opportunity for manager positions and even higher pay scale</p>
<p>I’m not sure I understand your question. Are you looking for schools to apply for grad school? Do you mean online? if not then the schools that are closest to you. USC is great for Computer Engineering, but does your company pay for the MS, it’s pretty expensive. For LA area, you can try UCLA or Pepperdine or Caltech. I think Caltech has a good System Engineering MS or something like that.</p>
