3 Stanford University-School of Engineering

INTERNATIONAL GRADUATE ENROLLMENT: 33 %

“It’s simple,” says Stanford student Arun Josh, “the faculty is excellent, the innovation is mind blowing, and there are interdisciplinary and industry-relevant solutions.” He says it in a manner that leads one to believe that there is no other college worth going to. He goes on to talk about the synergy and support that students thrive on. Whatever the case, there are those who swear by the location, and they prefer to live on the West Coast for the much lovelier climate as opposed to the East Coast. Most Stanford students get jobs immediately, both in the Silicon Valley and elsewhere in the US. Others choose to pursue doctoral studies specialising in such diverse areas as artificial intelligence, hardware design, numerical analysis, or graphics. Since the CS curriculum gives students a strong foundation to build depth in the field, graduates are usually prepared to pursue any subfield in their programme.
