[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Friend paid full cost for son to go to CMU for mechanical engineering - [b]no internships,[/b] just research with profs, it was looking like no job after graduation so he will be doing masters at CMU next year. She says job search after college is way more stressful. [/quote] That was the problem. Then again if the student wants an R&D job they needed the masters anyway. Top masters programs in engineering are often funded. Not sure if they can get funding from CMU for a masters there, though they may very well be able to as CMU has internal fellowships as well as assistantships for many of its engineering masters students. If the student had planned ahead they would have applied to the top masters programs with full funding and would have also tried their luck at the many funded overseas options in engineering.[/quote]
