Hey,
I'm a upcoming visiting student from germany. Therefore I thought it would be the right thing for me to register here
. Nevertheless I have some kind... I don't know if this is actually a problem... Here is my situation.
I have applied for a study abroad semester (fall term 2012) at the University of York and the University of Manchester. Both accepted my application so that I have two offers from both universities. But now I dont know which to confirm?
Manchester or York?! Which would you prefer and why?
Are those universties actually 'good' universities?! Which of the two would help to find a job in the UK?
I read that Manchester is part of the Russell Group, but I also read that York will become part of the Russell Group, too. Is this some kind of quality feature for research or industry in the UK?
Some Background Infos:
My study abroad semester will be part of my undergraduate studies in computer science. My major is software engineering and software systems. My minor is mathematics. In 2013 I'm going to graduate (hopefully
) with two bachelor degrees. In Computer Science and Mathematics.
After this semester I would like to do an internship in the UK and if possible my bachelor thesis, too. After my graduation I would like to work as software architect and/or artificial intelligence in industry.
The modules and the proposal study plans for both universities were confirmed by my home institution. Therefore there won't be any problems with the credit transfer.
It would be great if you help me. Thank you!
Nils
