• My recommendation for future students is to find places that are on the route of the college shuttle or public bus. so travel is not an issue. Find accommodation where grocery stores and necessary amenities are near so you can access them without a vehicle. I would suggest go for gated communities since strangers can enter the community easily and much safer.

The post-study placement opportunities for Computer Science students at UTD are impressive. High profile organizations such as Amazon, Verizon, Microsoft and Intel are regular visitors to the campus searching for new talents. The university’s Career Center oversees resume screening, technical interviews and coding challenges as part of the placement procedure. Each year a good number of students manage to secure internships as well as full-time positions in software development, data science and cloud engineering. On average, around 85% of graduates get employed within six months with an approximate median salary of $90,000. For those who want to specialize in academic research areas there are also great opportunities at UTD like AI or cybersecurity.

I chose UTD because of its excellent academic reputation, especially in Computer Science, and also due to the good career opportunities that comes with it as a result of partnerships with leading companies such as Amazon and Verizon. For my career aspirations, it was essential that I am located in USA which is known as hub of technology and innovations. Equally important to my decision was the fact that family members live around and they can provide both personal help as well as academic assistance. The experience has been all encompassing - academics apart; I have taken part in such activities like ACM and playing for their cricket team. A lively student life is what the campus offers; one striking thing about it is that there exists a balance between academic pursuits and social activities.

There are a lot of companies that visit UTD like, JPMC, Goldman, Amazon, Kohler, Capital One, AT$T, T - mobile, Lennox etc. The average salary ranges from 95k to 150k with a median salary of around 105k. I believe this number is really good considering the tax rates in Texas. There are multiple career fairs where you can go meet multiple recruiters face to face and talk with them about the opportunities which I feel is a really good way to push your resume in the corporate world.

I chose UTD because the Naveen Jindal School of Management is one of the finest in the country and the courses offered at UTD are really relevant and flexible and that is something that aligned with what I wanted to do. I also chose UTD because of the state of Texas, since there are a lot of Indians as well and cities like Austin and Dallas have plenty of opportunities almost equivalent to the west coast.

Students branch out in a wide variety of fields. Average salary may be USD 60,000 per annum for new professionals. We applied for jobs independently with no campus placements. Professors write letters of recommendation upon request.

I chose this college because it had a good Biotechnology program, good pricing, and this degree is competitive in the job market. Overall, It was a great, enlightening experience where I learned to be independent, make friends, connect with professors and companies, and also where I worked hard and accomplished a lot. Now I have great job offers with good pay and a firm start to my professional life.

Almost everyone got a job, from my knowledge the average salaries are anywhere between 75-90k usd depending on which city you will get a job.

I chose this university as it had good ranking for masters in business analytics; most people from the batch got job on time. Overall experience has been pretty positive although the fees is higher if you don’t get a scholarship. So try to score well in GRE and get a scholarship to make it worth.

There are many career fairs that happen on-campus. Companies like DART, Goldman Sachs and many other local companies visit. I have never been to one, so I'm not sure about the statistics and process.

I submitted 1 SOP, resume 3 LORs for my application. I wrote about my interest in the MSBA program and I linked it to how my professional experience of 1.5 years is relevant to this degree. I also mentioned relevant projects and extracurricular experience. LORs were given by my professors. My resume consisted information about my experience, educations, skills and projects. I was interested in UTD because of the ability to choose courses from various schools. Also, the location of the college is great and gives a homely feeling. I heard good reviews of this particular program and decided to go with it. I chose this program because I had experience with data in my workplace. I liked my work and wanted to explore it. It is a good university with great professors and academic programs. The infrastructure and extracurricular activities are good too. But I would say that it is very expensive without scholarship.

Recession has hit us really hard - placements has become quite hard. Finding on-campus is easy. But we have career fairs.

No, there was no interview and or any test. Because, the tuition fee is quite less than other university. Computer Science department has some amazing professors with amazing papers they have worked on and have been working on a lot of recent technologies.
