- Likes:
- Factors that influenced me to choose UMBC over all other university were surrounding cities, living cost (which is quite cheaper compared to other cities with such highly ranked university), University campus, facilities provided in campus and to international students, availablity of On Campus jobs. Apart from other aspects, university offers multiple options for a single course, you will have at least 5-6 options for a single course, this gives a freedom to choose and explore multiple pathways.
- Dislikes:
- Some students may not be fond of UMBC's location in suburban Baltimore, feeling that it lacks the urban vibrancy found in other college towns. UMBC is located in a Baltimore county area, which I feel have few areas that is not as safe for students as it should be.
Placement:
University abroad do not offer placements like we have back in India. We have career fairs where companies visit and students need to come up with a resume and meet companies, introduce themselves briefly, enquire about the opportunities, drop resumes.
Internship:
I have just completed my 1st semester, looking forward to internship this semester.
- Likes:
- UMBC has all the facilities and perks except the location. The costs are comparatively low and curriculum equally good.
Placement:
The career fair is mostly for US citizens. For immigrants, it is like do your own search. Career Center helps with resume review, Interview process.
It has been a great and smooth experience. Everyone around is helpful. It is just the area that is not too great.
- Likes:
- The MS program in cybersecurity is a dedicated program that is handled by people who have either actually worked or are still working in the field. The professors are interactive and the method for class is very good.
- Dislikes:
- The campus social scene is quite lacking, hence it is quite difficult for me to make new friends or meet new people, the campus is located in the sub-urban area so there isn't exactly much to do as in terms of night life.
Placement:
The research opportunities for cybersecurity for international student is not possible in almost all universities across the states as it is related to security and most security research programs are federal related hence mostly require a us citizenship or green card, But research opportunities in other courses are plenty. As for average post-study placement at UMBC 80% of its grad students have been placed, and earn in the bracket of around 60k-105k USD.
Internship:
I have interned back when I was doing my bachelors, and done some basic freelance work.
