I went to UT and met a senior undergraduate student. He tole me:
1. The CS in UT is very much math and theory oriented, so the program is quite challenging to most of the students there. Therefore, the program in UT prepares students for further study, like PHD or the like...
2. He heard the CS program in UW is more practical, and therefore provide better opportunity for a job. Microsoft hire undergrad students from UW annually.
I also checked the faculty of U of Waterloo, many of whom are the PHD from UT. Meanwhile, the computer facilities in UT seems no worse than those in UW;
How come the advantage of UW in computer program prestige? Is it because UT has too many focus besides engineering and computer science?
What do you think??
