Greeting all,

Hope you are all fine and good. I want to apply for master degree in one of U.S university. I will appreciate if someone provide some information.

US News and World Report provides rankings of Colleges and Universities in various categories.

Depends on what you are wanting to do, will depnd on where you apply.

Good Luck.

There are only about 5,000 or so to choose from. And you better have a big checkbook. If you cannot get a scholarship, which given what we know about you you just might, your best bet is to establish residency for a few years in the state which you want to attend school in, there are large discounts availabel for in state tuition.

The problem your going to run into is the accreditain(sP) of your courses, maybe even the place you attended.

State Side all Universities have a standard level for each diplomia(SP), coming in from outside their system of merit level cousres might well be draining, IE you've already taken this.

I think the bar is a little higher from the get-go, they will not easily except all your class hours completed to date, IE Not that it can't be done, but exceptance of your sheep skin and etc., etc., might just happen.

Good Luck, just the same.

You need to make some important decisions.
1. No school in the north. It is too cold. Leaves out the Ohio St, Michigan
And other schools in this area. Not much on football anyway.
2. No Schools on the West Coast. Earth quakes.
3. No Schools in the Mid West. Tornadoes.
4. No schools on the East Coast. None have any good football teams.
5. No schools on the Gulf Coast. Hurricanes. But they do have good football teams.
6. Leaves northern Alabama, Tennessee and western Georgia.
7. Best bet is Auburn. www.eng.auburn.edu

Thanks a lot Bob,

I am just looking for taking admission and a little bit confused to apply in which university.

First, I suggest the University of Michigan does not likely fit your needs. Following is an unofficial description of the primary fields being taught.
http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~aey/areas.html

In a search I did earlier and found the University of Minnesota may be getting government support to increase coverage of power engineering.

The most fundamental information that a student should want is extremely hard to find. I think the following will show you a few courses in power engineering.
http://onestop2.umn.edu/courses/courses.jsp?campus=UMNTC&designator=EE
http://www.ece.umn.edu/ProspectiveStudentsGraduate/index.htm#msee

If you could get some of the power engineers on this forum to tell you where they went to school and what their knowledge of current courses is, then you might have the best information.

Also your own searching with Google may help.

I need help also in choosing field. I dont know in U.S which field is more popular to get job and work. Doing master degree in power sytem would be a good idea.
Hope to explain some information.

Take a look at Clemson.

http://www.clemson.edu/ces/departments/ece/index.html

All the engineers I know & have met from there are mighty in the ways of the electron. Clemson is located in a small town with the same name in South Carolina.

SG-1:

I went to your link. From there I got nowhere that was useful. How do you find a list of the courses offered and a description for each.


Trying to figure out how to use Google to get at course information.

Using --- university of michigan electrical engineering description of courses
This got me to --- University of Michigan EECS Courses --- in the list of Google results.
now I arrived at
http://www.eecs.umich.edu/eecs/academics/courses.html
Picked --- EECS Course Descriptions
http://www.engin.umich.edu/courses/
Picked --- Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
http://www.engin.umich.edu/bulletin/eecs/courses.html
I did not find a single course directed at power systems in this current list of courses. In the 1972-73 Catalog there were several.

In place of the U of M I substituted Clemson this did not help.

This is Ohio State and is very similar to Michigan
http://www.ece.osu.edu/academics/courses.html

I tried some other schools by just changing the school name and did not get good results.

Ham:

Unless some more readers provide you with specific information on how to get at course listings you will have hard time finding the information based on my limited experiments.

That should give you an indication. Most ABET accredited schools will have similar classes.

Keep in mind all of those classes have prerequisites, which you probably won't meet...and may end up making you have to take quite a few undergrad classes first.

Good point.... and frankly, unless you are going to do research or want to become a professor, a master's in electrical engineering won't get you much. The PE stamp is the bread winner there. Better to go with MBA, on top of the EE degree. Although, I can't say that really gets you much either, from what I've seen of the people with them.

Dear all,
Thanks for nice information but I have to do my Master degree in one of university.
I have found the below University and they give me positive reponse. So, I need your comment regarding this university.

What is the best field in market thesedays to do master degree in control system or power system

Hope to advise me.

Utah State University

Utah State University (USU) is a public land-grant university whose main campus is located in Logan, Utah.
It was established in 1888, after Anthon H. Lund introduced a bill for its creation. Originally known as the Agricultural College of Utah, its name was subsequently changed to Utah State Agricultural College, and in 1957 it became Utah State University.

The western states in the Rocky Mountains are nice areas. I spent two quarters at the University of Colorado at Boulder Colorado. Friday nights we went horseback riding up into the mountains for a steak fry.

I looked over the list of courses at Utah and did not see any directly related to power engineering.

Can you more accurately define what you really want to do? Life time goals? There is such a broad range of courses today in the field of Electrical Engineering that you could probably go to school for your entire life.

... (USA)... A State college that... is a public land-grant university

You should take note of this!

Most "STATE" universities that are PL-GU will usually be based on earth sciences usually lead themselves to the other sciences as well...

It really depends on where you live as to what the market is going to be. But as I see it power systems is going to be the most stable in the future as the power grid are load to the maximum and they are making more customers not less.
