This post from Dhruv talks in detail about the Management Science and Engineering Masters program at Stanford University. This follows his earlier post on how MS&E program
It’s a tough job trying to summarize the Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) Program in a few words. I can boldly say that it is not perfectly equivalent to any of the programs found at other Universities. It must, therefore, be understood in terms of its constituent courses and the ultimate goal that Stanford wishes to achieve with this eclectic combination of Management …

The Department of Computer Science at Stanford released data about the salary statistics for the out going batch of 2007-2008 - and this also included survey of students from Electrical Engineering Dept. We have managed to get our hands on it and here we present for our readers, what the data looks like. The salaries are segmented based on 3 types of degrees, bachelors, masters and PhD.

Not many people know about Masters in the area of Industrial engineering or as it is known in the US as Management Science and Engineering.

Just for the purpose of being thorough - the official name of the class is - Create Engaging Web Applications Using Metrics and Learning on Facebook (CS377W). I love this course! I am just having a lot of fun in it. Now if you have taken any CS course (live databases, algos, programming, OS), you might know they are incredibly time consuming and require a lot of hours during the quarter. This …

I just received an email from Connie Chan (if you are stanford CS - u her know all too well!) - who is part of the Stanford Computer Forum - basically our career maker - who interacts and setups up company info sessions. And what surprised me was the company which was holding info sessions is Infosys! Its amazing that an Indian company is hiring right from the intellectual heartland of the US of A. And well TCS does some hiring from Stanford CS as well, but thats mostly from …
