- Limited number of courses than other universities. And heavy competition for the courses to choose from. Slightly expensive room rent for accommodation.

Course curriculum is extremely good and heavy in work load. We were given exposure to practical application by making projects as part of the course work. People interested in research options can pursue thesis too.

Tution fee is around 35,000 dollars for 31 credits.

- The main factor would be the tuition over here is really less taking into account the reputation and quality of the academics. It suits well for my profile.,
- I liked the diverse group of people I was able to meet over here, academics if you pick and choose your courses you can learn a lot, so many resources to study (Libraries and lounges)
- Dislikes:
- As they have given too many admissions getting to choose one like has been really difficult, finding part time is really difficult. I don't know why they hesitate to give offer letter."
Course Curriculum:
I like the course curriculum, It has the conventional System courses which covers the core of computer science and also I had taken a course which dealt with ChatGPT and how I can use it make a project and involving prompt engineering. I guess this will answer the relevancy of course work. Obviously there are professors who teaches the same stuff every year but wherever you go you will some.
Fees:
For 31 credits it will be around $35000 Living expense may be around $900 to $1300 per month

- I chose this college because of its reputation and high ROI. When moving to abroad, cost plays an essential role and it can sometimes be burdensome. Stony Brook University has one of the lowest tuition fees in United States and delivers exceptional quality of education. I particularly chose this program because I am interested in the fields of Machine Learning, Data Science and Software Development. Professors are experienced in their fields and publish in top-tier conferences and journals like CVPR and ICCV. These factors were more than enough for me to pursue my masters degree here.,
- First of all, it is a beautiful, lush green campus far away from bustling cities. It provides you with a perfect setting to learn your interests and grow.,
- Secondly, assignments here are relatable and will demand a lot of hard work. But if done fairly and without the use of AI, then I guarantee you that it will be all worth it.,
- For your information, the university has strict regulations regarding the usage of AI and plagiarism. Additionally, all assignments are updated every semester, making them more and more relevant and worth it. One can experience a drastic increase in the level of things they study here compared to their Bachelor's degree; but hey, that's what you are coming to do Master for.,
- Professors here are accommodating and open to discussions, which is a plus. The university and its on-campus housing have a personal police in place, ensuring 24x7 safety. It gives you peace of mind while you are away from home. University has its private bus transit system, enabling students to get free and quickly to and fro from college to their apartments/dorms.,
- Apart from this, Stony Brook students have free access to Suffolk County buses on Saturday, which helps them get free transportation to buy groceries. If you have some home stuff to be purchased from Walmart/Target, then Stony Brook Transit has got you covered once again. You have free buses to these supermarkets. So, university have many facilities in place to ease your living. Above all, there is a substantial Indian community studying here, which can help you cope with your homesickness.,
- The university has a Laptop Loaner Program under which SBU students with valid SBU IDs can borrow a laptop for use anywhere. This is a plus for students with old/no laptops who want to avoid spending extra bucks on laptops. Apart from this, the university has a great job fair where many prominent companies come.,
- The university's infrastructure is also great, conducive to excellent learning experience. Hence, Stony Brook University is the best place to pursue your higher education if you are looking for a great learning experience with peace of mind regarding safety and support. If you are looking forward to plainly enjoying your Master's life with minimal studying, then Stony Brook University might be a little heavy for you due to its rich and in-depth assignments and course requirements.
- Dislikes:
- The only thing I dislike about my university is their assumptions regarding us knowing many things. Some professors tend to skip some foundational things by saying that they assume that we have already learnt this stuff in our bachelor's and hence we know it. But this is not true. All the students tend to come from diverse colleges with a diverse curriculum.,
- So, assuming that we know some topics beforehand and skipping them proves to be a hindrance while studying some advanced topics in the course. So here, self-studying plays a pivotal role because students must self-study many essential topics before jumping to the advanced things taught in the class. Apart from this, there is severe competition for everything here, ranging from course selections to on-campus jobs and housing selection. This can be stressful at times. So, apart from these two things, there is nothing that I dislike about my university.
Course Curriculum:
The course syllabus is updated regularly. They consider state-of-the-art innovation and ensure students are updated with the latest innovations. Research experience is also excellent here, but it's only meant for those who are really into it because it can prove heavy.
Fees:
For Fall 2023 intake students, tuition cost is $1200 per credit and one needs 31 credits to obtain masters degree.
Course Curriculum:
The course curriculum is the updated one. Assignments are tough. Conceptual learning is stressed via assignments, projects, etc. The independent study option allows you to work on research projects and industrial projects under a professor.
Fees:
It depends on the credits. For masters 31 credits are compulsory and every credit costs around $964 apart from the other fees like health insurance, transportation, etc. Every semester all credits taken above 12 aren't charged. Approximately the tuition fee is around $40000 for two years.
Course Curriculum:
The courses are really well arranged. A lot of interesting projects going on in the departments and one could work on an independent study under the professor of their interest.
Fees:
$42951 was the i20 amount. Each credit costs approximately $1000 and my department needed 31 credits to graduate.
Course Curriculum:
There is very relevant and updated coursework. Focus on projects and industry-oriented classes. Challenging assignments to make the learning experience good.
