Re: I don't know the future of a Ph.D in control system

Agreed. A PhD is just too much hard work to be doing if you're not interested. Go out, get a job, find out what you like doing. If you're going to be finding that out, you might as well get paid for it.

may i know which univ is ur in..so that i can avoid it..i am applying for phd there in US.how is education in US..do u find is worth doing..... junu

Let me tell you about the American education system -- It ranges from the absolute best to the absolute worst. You have to do a bit of research to find which are the good ones.

And now a plug for Canada -- the universities are all good (but usually not the 'absolute best') at 1/3 the price and you're a lot less likely to get mugged in the street at night. Also, you are a lot more likely to get into the country. US likes us to come for the sun and the beach, but they don't like it if we are already tanned when we arrive. They make us sit in the cooler until we get pale. ;-)

P.S. No offence, but you write like a schoolboy talking to his friends. People will not take you seriously. Try this, "May I know which university you are in so that I can avoid it. I am applying for a PhD there in the US. How is education in the US? Do you find it is worth doing?"

Thanks Walter, May i know what are the requirements for Canadian universities?Is the GRE,TOEFL must for those students who have done their previous education in the country where the english is the official language? What about fellowships,scholarships,grants in canadian uiversities? i would be very much obliged to you if you kindly answer my queries. thanking you junu

There are even a few good engineering schools in the US, then of course, there are a few great ones too.

Nah, you don't want to go to the US.. Everybody does that. ;-)

Why not come Down Under?? Sunny beaches, kangaroos..

Cameron:-)

but is the australian degree world renowned..what about fellowships there.. and good schools thanks to all

Sorry, I couldn't tell you - but I was only half joking. To see what's on offer, start here:

World-renowned? Of course!! Hey, you've heard of us, haven't you? And you won't find a bad school here - not if you stick with the biggies anyway - there aren't that many to choose from... ;-)

Happy hunting, Cameron:-)
