<p>My major is computer science & planning to go for MS degree. Let me know the best graduate schools for exploring in Windows operating system & Virtualization ?</p>
<p>UCB
georgia institute of technology
illinois institute technology
CAL
cornell university
…</p>
<p>Learning about the Windows Operating System and Virtualization (I assume that you mean a particular package like VMWare) is technical education. You may use Windows and Windows applications in a CS program but more of the focus in CS programs is usually placed on math and theory and less on specific platforms. Yes, you do a lot of programming but it’s designed to be generic so that you can work on any platform that you have to.</p>
<p>Thanks BCEagle91.
Yes, i have to learn Operating systems & virtualization fundamentals in Generic.
Let me know the best graduate school for learning those subjects.</p>
<p>I don’t work in those areas and am not familiar with the best schools in those areas.</p>
<p>For a wider audience with exposure to grad schools and these topics, you might try asking about this on SlashDot. I do see posts about undergrad and grad school from time to time there.</p>
<p>CMU? MIT?</p>
<p>What college did you go to/are you going to for undergrad?</p>
<p>Aren’t UCB and CAL the same thing?</p>
<p>No, UCB is Berkeley, Cal is Cal Tech.</p>
<p>really? i thought Cal was UCB too. that’s what the ppl at the main forum used Cal for, i believe.</p>
<p>UCB == Cal</p>
<p>Cal != Caltech</p>
<p>CalTech == CalTech (abbreviation for California Institute of Technology)</p>
<p>I far I am aware Cal has always been used with respect to UCB, whereas Cal Tech is almost always called Cal Tech.</p>
<p>People who work in virtualization (at companies like VMware, Citrix, and the like tend to have strong OS and computer architecture backgrounds. MIT, Stanford, and CMU are some of the schools that have top OS and computer architecture people (as assessed by academia).</p>
<p>Hi Mergo, I completed my undergrad in india (Bangalore university).</p>
