Engineering
Engineers are in demand - and surveys suggest that's not likely to change in the near future. U.S. employers regularly host foreign engineers on employment visas in order to fill positions, as there are not nearly enough qualified U.S. professionals to meet demand. Graduate study in engineering is probably as safe an investment as any commitment to higher education can be. At the same time, graduate study can help engineers make more satisfying careers by updating their knowledge and skills and providing opportunities for research.
The following table lists some of the top-ranked engineering programs in the U.S.
A Note on Deadlines - Application deadlines vary by program. Check with the program you are applying to for current deadline information. In general, plan on submitting your application no later than nine months prior to the semester you want to start classes.
