difference between MCE and MS structural
difference between MCE and MS structural
(OP)
I am wondering what is the main difference between a "MCE ( master of civil engineering ) with specialization in Structrual engineering" and MS Master of science in structural engineering, and M.E. Master of Engineering (civil engineering with specialization in structural engineering.
which one is the best ? if one wants to go for a masters degree. ?

I don't think the degree name is important. What would be more important is the University you attend and that only to a small extent. A poor student with a degree from MIT would be of less value to an employer than a good student from almost any other engineering school.

My old boss had Master of Science on his diploma from Berkley (I think) but he also did the non-thesis option. I think Master of Engineering there was the thesis option. Different schools call it different things.
If you are planning on getting a PhD, it would probably be best to go the thesis route. In my case, the non-thesis was a much quicker route and allowed me to take more electives. I don't think many employers would think one was better than the other.

so this M.C.E program was new to me too, the university tells me all the good stuff about it, but i am still not sure enough to make a dicision. I certainly cant go back to regular university with life stuck in three kids and a wife.
and i certainly feel the need of Masters degree !

I had to look up on the wall to see which one was which. That should tell you how important the difference is.
