[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My kids is looking at GMU for grad school and is not concerned with the party scene or how good looking people are. Just wants the best education and internship/job opportunities. [/quote] In Engineering/CS, GMU is fine for a professional Masters degree, but a poor choice for a PhD. The departmental/faculty politics at the PhD level means that GMU produces a lot more ABDs (meaning did not get the PhD, finished everything, but the dissertation was not accepted/ signed off) than PhDs. For a PhD, a higher ranked school will do a better job of getting students out the door with a PhD. I know it sounds a bit odd, but I have watched this for decades now. Caveat Emptor. [/quote]
