Hello I am a student from the States and currently studying Undergraduate Degree in EE. I also planned on doing my Masters in EE here also but for some reason I am interested in Double Major in Material Science. The thing is, I just want to learn, everything for the fun of it without breaking the bank because dual Masters Degree can be quite costly. Here are my questions.
Do you think it would be a wise decision to study Material Science in a foreign Chinese University? I know some of you guys would obviously say why not just do it in America. One thing in mind the tuition here for Graduate school is around $30-50k while over there is between $8-12k in a 2 yr program.
How would it effect me if I were to return to the U.S. after finishing my education in China and continuing my education again here to apply for Graduate school as part of my goal of Double Major in EE and Material Science?
And lastly will it effect me in any way somehow in getting a job here in U.S. again? I can understand that some Employers do look down on you if you've obtained an Education in a third world country but since China now leads in Physics and Science journal publication I'm not losing a step at all in terms of education whether I am studying Material Science in the States or in the middle of China.
Call me crazy but is this a stupid goal of mine or a gamble that can be worth while. I have plenty of time to think this over.
A few selections:
-Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
-Dalian Polytechnic University
-Tsinghua University
-Shenzen University
-Harbin Institute of Technology
