    TAMU without doubt. cuz all unis are almost similar in ur list. But TAMU-K is coming up, plus texas holds location advantage as well as cost-effectiveness

    Thanks a lot Akshay!
    I'm also thinking about either Lamar or TAMUK.
    According to MSinUS' 'Top 200 univs for MS,PhD' list, Lamar(160) steps ahead of TAMUK(177). Though I don't know actually, which one is better for MS in Electrical Engineering!

    First of all, am not entirely convinced by those rankings....anyways, even if it were true, its just 16 palces in a list of 200. ....TAMU-K may not be very highly ranked, but its coming up...Lamar is fine too. So if ur still doubtful, then u can consider other things like cost of living etc...try contacting the gradutae students association for that info. Also check with them about the job oppportunities etc.
