MSc in Environmental Eng - CMU vs UMich vs UIUC?

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I need to have some advices from this forum regarding which university I should go.</p>

<p>I am enrolling for MSc in Environmental Engineering (coursework based) and I have been offered for admission at</p>

<ul>
<li>CMU (assistantship offered)</li>
<li>UMich</li>
<li>UIUC</li>
</ul>

<p>I have heard from my friends and professors that all are indeed excellent universities in engineering, and it won’t make any difference at all for me in terms of career prospect. However I am an international student and reputation is one of the main concern for me when selecting graduate school. Although all are good universities, which one is better in terms of reputation in USA and also internationally (particularly in Asia)?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot! I’m hoping for advices from you guys since the deadline is coming very close.</p>
