"Great Computer Science / Electrical Engineering college at the university. The fact that Texas Instruments helps fund so much there, there are so many opportunities to expand from the basic coursework."

"Con: Master's students used to be treated the same as Ph.D. students, meaning they were encouraged to take the same classes. However, the school has now started to separate the students into different classes, which could impact the quality level of the classes. In addition, I had several people at the school make me feel like I was "less than" in comparison to Ph.D. students--even though I was paying a substantial amount of money to attend while Ph.D. students are generally funded through the program. Pro: There is a lot of variability in faculty research interests and (most) faculty members are willing to assist you with your research goals."

"This graduate program is excellent and all of the professionals are great to work with. The program is very expensive and no scholarships or grants are available to graduate students. The graduate program is located in downtown Dallas and the commute can be excruciating. But overall, this program is great and highly recommended."

"This graduate programs offers a variety of courses in the arts and technology field and provides a place to truly discover your passion. I have enjoyed learning from these professors over the past semester. Though not all courses are offered every semester, I find that I am able to take courses that are beneficial and interesting without feeling hindered by the missing classes."

"UTD is a wonderful technology and science school and I know they have invested the best in their programs. While biomedical engineering is still growing, UTD has done more to help it grow by providing the right teachers and the best materials for their students to succeed. There are plenty of networking opportunities as well as tailored internship programs for students so there are a lot of pros to attending this school. The main con to my graduate program is the lack of evening and afternoon classes. I work full-time and am a commuting student so I feel that I have to work extra hard to get the classes I need at times I can attend them. I also feel like I miss out on classes that tailor to my future career due to the times they are available."

"The academic curriculum of the MS ITM program is flexible and one of the best when compared to any other university. They offer four different tracks and students can mix and choose subjects based on their interests. The ERP track is good, and subjects give a fair knowledge on SAP fundamentals."

"UT Dallas has a top ranked program for communication disorders. The best part about the program is that there are 2 callier centers at UTD which put on several different communication disorders programs Students at UTD have a wide variety of practicum experiences available to them. The main con of the program is that the main location is in downtown Dallas. It can take students more than an hour to get to school in the morning due to all the construction and traffic."

Nevertheless, the professors and all other faculties are very responsible and intelegent. I had taken three classes this semester.

"The Masters program for History at University of Texas at Dallas is an enjoyable, diverse program with a lot of knowledgeable professors in diverse fields. The only unfortunate downfall in my opinion is the lack of organization and financial aid as they do not have a department chair and sometimes have problems of having enough classes for all the history students to take."

"The school is small so you definitely get that one on one attention with your professors which is a great benefit. Since the school is very academic driven I wish they would extend their library hours and offer more on campus resources such as more restaurants to eat at."

"I like the life in UTD. The beautiful scenery and friendly faculty bring me a lot of happiness. It was my first year in UTD, I'm not sure if the education quality was as high as it said, but I like the atmosphere in every class. One little disappointment, sometimes it is really inconvenient for students who live in somewhere off campus."

"I am a student from JSOM of UTD. Most of the teachers in our campus is great and responsible. The staffs are friendly and if you are a new student, especially you are a international student, you will be taken good care of. Also the environment here is helpful for you to think about your future, the advisors will help you and there are a lot of career fair allow you to see what you are lack and make your picture of future more clear. After four months study here, I know much better what I want and I would like to study. Overall, Utd is good university and the more important thing is that it is becoming better!"
