Hi, I am a mechanical engineer and have been working in the maintenance sector for about 3 years now. Now, I am thinking of changing my career path and going for an MSc or MEng in computational science and engineering. I have always loved working with different software packages and solving engineering problems using these. I know, ideally I should have never gotten into maintenance but due to some personal reasons, I started working there. Now that i can leave my job and go for graduate studies, which university do you think is the best in Computational science and engineering and does not have a very high tuition.
Thank you

Yes ofcourse...I currently live in dubai and am willing to relocate.

RE: Hi, I am a mechanical engineer and

OK, but that's still a wide reach. Now, or course, "best" and "does not have a very high tuition" tend to be mutually exclusive. As a foreign student, even our state universities will run a lot. I'm partial to UC Berkeley, because it is at least one of the best, but for foreign students: http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/paying... the cost is probably comparable to the less expensive private universities. There are lots of lists of "best" colleges like: http://www.usnews.com/education/best-global-univer... Likewise there are lots of lists of "best" return colleges like: http://www.payscale.com/college-roi/major/computer... Note that UC Berkeley is near the top of both lists.

You now need to look at budgeting questions.

RE: Hi, I am a mechanical engineer and

Thanks, but the rankings that you've showed seem to be for computer science major. Is there a similar list for "computational science and engineering"? or should a list for applied mathematics or mechanical engineering be relevant?

RE: Hi, I am a mechanical engineer and

Bauman moscow state technology university has a decent rep for engineering. Tuition is 4000 a year for postgrads. A PhD at Cambridge university will be about 40000 dollars a year for tuition, plus some extortionate amount for a freezing bedsit. The beer's cheap.

So it rather depends on what you want.

Cheers
