求分析和建议，以下几个学校

刚刚发现了一亩三分地，是个新人，请各位前辈帮帮我，分析一下下面的这些学校的MS的优劣，给我一些建议吧！
1.purdue
2.CMU
3.Columbia
4.UCI
5.西北
6.virginia tech
7.duke
8.Lehigh
9.USC
10.佛罗里达大学
11.伍斯特理工
我想问问有经验的前辈们，你们觉得这里面有哪个学校MS比较好一点的吗？听说有些学校比较水，毕业就失业~~求前辈们给我点建议~~

应77要求。。。我就说一句。。。。水不水和失业（在美国）没关系。。。你去哪个学校读civil，失业概率都比就业概率大得多。。。你要想就业，我觉得去大城市或者工业强的地区应该会好点吧。

给你提供我知道的吧，高大上的土木建筑咨询公司总部在NYC的很多很多，很多里面各种校友（嗯，基本是本土的），所以来哥大的career fair一大把一大把，就看你有没有本事进去了，尤其是MS。。。

MS... 你都没说什么专业.

可能是土木，发在土木版。
但是任何个人情况都没有，然后上来就说分析一下这些学校，很没有意义

楼主先报背景吧。。

哦没看全... 要考虑的东西好多啊, 这跟他以后的打算都有关系... 一两段话说不清楚.

丧心病狂地伸手啊这。。。如果是个妹子，请联系我

方向捏？土木还是环境哒？

版里之前有讨论结构工程的帖子，个人以为此信息甚好，再次粘在下面。内容系转载，有不妥请随时联系我。

I was a structural engineering student back in the day and went through the gauntlet to get my BS and Ph.D. I'm now in a different field. But when I was researching graduate schools years ago, I remember compiling my list of the top structural engineering schools, based on discussions with professors during interviews at the different schools at the time. Another important metric I also employed was to go to Berkeley's (or another school you already know is prominent for graduate or undergraduate structural engineering) website and see where the most successful professors (with the most funding) did their grad schooling or what other schools they were collaborating with for research. I saw a distribution of something like this (based on interviews and data aggregation) when I applied for structural engineering schools for undergrad and grad (not ranked absolutely):

UIllinois (experimentation and theory focused.)
Berkeley (experimentation and theory focused)
Columbia (known more for computational theory with a mix of design and analysis.)
Cornell (finite element powerhouse with aero and material considerations. Very theory focused.)
. ΧPrinceton (very good design and theory school. you learn quite a bit about the architectural aspects and structural implications of a certain design coming out of this school. Known for its research on unique structures. No experimentation).
Stanford (very theoretical school with a strong seismic program. A lot of collaborations with Berkeley for experimentation. Some small-scale testing done in-house)
UTexas (heavy reliance on Department of Transportation experimentation research)
UCLA (some experimentation but with greater integration with biomedical and aerospace structural analysis implications. Strong seismic program)
UCSD (They have a pure school of structural engineering that focuses on seismic research experimentation via shake tables and small-scale testing).
UMich (known for some experimentation with concrete and transportation projects)
CMU (known for probabilistic analysis and simulation)
SUNY-Buffalo (known for seismic experimentation).

You'll see that the above list is more bent towards a research student's view. But that could help if you're interested in research. If you're interested in structural design, most of the schools above will prepare you very well (save for perhaps SUNY-Buffalo and CMU).

Other schools on your list such as Northwestern are more known for Transportation (traffic optimization). USC does primarily seismic research with analysis for geotech applications.

本人985，本科土木的~~
MS 想要申跟海洋工程或者环境相关的，管理也可以~~
我是想要最终回国工作的~
