Northeastern University (NEU) Courses and Fees

• The difficulty level for the courses I chose was 9/10. I wanted to take more difficult courses to learn more and get the best out of the study abroad experience. There are difficult and easy courses and students can choose whatever they like. Most positive aspect would be that the curriculum is built to bridge the gap between being a technical engineer and an effective manager, and it does that perfectly. The constant group projects, while sometimes stressful, are a realistic simulation of the modern workplace.
• You learn how to collaborate with people from different backgrounds and manage team dynamics, which is a critical soft skill. While the core curriculum is solid, the availability and quality of elective courses can be mixed. Sometimes a really interesting elective isn't offered for a particular semester. In a week I would usually have 4 classes, but it depends on the semester. Average number of students depends on the course taken; for me it was around 30-40 in one class. Indian students were 80%.

• Northeastern charges tuition per credit, which is nice because you have some control over how much you're spending each semester based on your course load. The Engineering Management programme requires 32 credits total, and each credit costs about $1,780. Do the math and you're looking at roughly $57,000 in tuition for the whole programme.
• But tuition isn't everything. There are mandatory fees every semester that add up quickly. The student health insurance (NU-SHIP) is around $2,500-$3,000 a year, though you can waive it if you already have decent coverage. Then there's the health and counselling fee (about $250 per semester) and student activity fees (another $150-$200). All told, these extras can add $3,000-$4,000 annually to your bill.
• Now let's talk about actually living in Boston; this is where it gets real. I initially thought I could get by on $1,250 a month, which would be $30,000 over two years. Technically possible? Sure. Comfortable? Not really. Boston's expensive, and most grad students I know budget closer to $1,600-$2,000 monthly.
• Here's what that looks like:
  • Rent is your biggest hit. I'm paying around $1,100 for a room in a three-bedroom apartment in Mission Hill. You might find cheaper options in Roxbury or Jamaica Plain if you're willing to have more roommates, but expect $900-$1,300 for your share. Groceries run me about $450 a month. I cook most of my meals and only eat out occasionally. If you're disciplined about meal prep, you can definitely keep this under $500. Transportation is $90 for the monthly T pass, which is non-negotiable unless you want to bike everywhere (not fun in winter).
  • Utilities—my share of electricity, heat, and internet comes to about $100 monthly. Everything else (phone bill, occasional coffee, social stuff) adds another $200 or so. Bottom line: You can technically survive on less, but I'd recommend planning for closer to $1,800 a month so you're not constantly stressed about money.

• I would say in terms of difficulty, the program was about 5/10. The teaching was almost entirely practical, which I really liked.
• The most positive aspect was that someone not exactly from a CS background could take it and compete with former CS students.
• Almost every class had around a hundred students. The class timings and days depend on the courses you take each semester.
• There were 98% Indian students in my course.

• Tuition fees - 70000$ USD
• This also includes the various other kinds of fees you had to pay, such as the health insurance, recreation fees, admin fees, etc.
• Fees are charged each semester depending on the number of credits you take for that particular semester.
• My monthly costs were around $800, including everything such as rent, utilities, groceries, etc.

• The difficulty for my coursework was intermediate. As it was a professional course it was very fast paced and practical.
• It was extremely fast paced and that was a bit of a negative experience. However, the course duration is short and the course itself is very practical.

• The fees included credit wise structure.
  It was about $1000 per credit at my time. The fees charged was semester wise. Being a master's student, college accommodation was not compulsory for us. However, health insurance was about 2800$ per year. 

• Monthly expense:

  *800 for rent
  *150 utilities
  *35 mobile bill
  *200 groceries
  *200 fun and entertainment
  *Transportation 100-120 

• Everyday, I used to grind by learning new things, juggling through assignments. I used to stay lat nights at University, to complete my assignments and try to catch up with the curriculum. 
• More than theoretical, it is practical in each course, where they offer best hands-on tools to excel. 

• Breakdown of Fees:
• Health Insurance (Per Year) - $2,500
• Totally there are 8 courses, 6 Core Courses and 2 Elective Courses
• Each Core course costs upto $7,000 per semester and each elective course costs upto $6,500 per semester
• Totally 33 credit based. Each course offers 4 credits, and an additional 1 credit for Introduction to Co-Op course, where the advisors help us  to craft my resume, cover letter, help you get into Co-Op. 
• Estimate of my Monthly Expenses:
• Each Semester costs $15,000, for living expenses (the breakdown as follows:
• Monthly rent - $600, Groceries - ($200 - $300), Mobile SIM expenses - $25

The courses are fine some are the latest one and some are old and not that updated. It is an elective so it's on you which you want to select. For Research not a good college but ya they do give good industrial exposure.

68000 USD for 2 years of master's including the medical insurance.

In order to graduate we are required to achieve at least 32 credits and each subject hold 3-4 credits all the mandatory courses have 4 credits the optional subjects vary between 3-4 credits. The course curriculum is mostly practical it is design in such a way that you would be required to do assignment and end term project which needs to be presented before the class, that project will have the learning of the entire semester as well as the things we explore on our own. The ratio of professor to student is 1:30 but we have TA who helps and are generally available all the time.

The program is a bit expensive but I was lucky enough to get an on campus job as well as a coop so the on campus job helped me to fund my rent and daily upkeeps and when I got coop I was able to save for 2 semester as well as provide for my expenses. Hence my cost of the program came down drastically the rest was supported by my father through a loan because I didn't want my father to burn down his saving and I also didn't wanted to do the same hence took a loan. So I have a loan of $30k and the total expense that I had incurred would be around $52k Tuition fees and $20k as my living expenses.

The program has a 32-credit system which is generally the same in most of the universities Northeastern University has a great curriculum for the program I was looking for and the faculty-to-student ratio is quite good as compared to the other universities.

For me it was not affordable as the total tution fee was 50000 us dollars but after some good scholarship it can be affordable if your profile is good you can opt for scholarships and if you have experience you can work as teaching assistant

Courses choices wisely as they offer very less courses and lots of students (over crowded) try to register for these courses and you don't end up getting the course you want.

58,000$ for 2 years (4 semester) [includes insurance:$2500 / year]

The course curriculum varies; some have updated content, while others cover outdated material. However, the program offers ample opportunities for industrial exposure through internships/Co-ops. The presence of dedicated advisers greatly assists in securing these valuable experiences.

The focus was more on a practical approach and that's what is needed for the industry. We had alot of projects every semester and only a few of the classes were written tests
