The Ghost of RubangB on 25 August 2008

I don't remember the cost of UC Berkeley here. It's a couple grand per semester, because it's a public university. I pay nothing though, due to a mix of fee waivers, scholarships, and financial aid.

^ You need the bachelor's then you need to apply for grad school. While in grad school you will probably be given teaching jobs in the university to cover for living and tuition expenses, you can even sometimes raise a whole family on that salary. In grad school you need about 2 years for your Masters and then 4ish years for your PhD and a complete thesis. That's your PhD in a nutshell.

how long is the bachelor?

Bachelor of Engineering is 4 years in duration. To obtain a PhD in engineering it would take up to 10 years to complete in total and I would strongly advise you not to waste time in doing a PhD. You are better of finding work as a graduate engineer upon completion of your Bachelor of Engineering degree.

In all honesty that depends. Masters and PhDs can do all the fun and cool things in a certain profession. Just depends on what the person wants to do.

he is right with a bachelor (bac) i have around 92% chance to find a good job but with a master my chances get lower because employers know they'll have to pay you more for that extra 2 years.

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

^ Oh I know, I fully agree, it's not a question of how much money you wanna be making but what you actually want to be doing. Since I'm focusing on AI and robotics all the heavy duty research is done at the higher levels not at the bac.

I don't get it, in countries like Canada, US, Australia, isn't there public universities where you don't have to pay, I don't mean a scholarship, I mean that not a single student pays?

You'd think so but no. Like I said your best bet is to show you deserve the state scholarship and go to a public state school which makes it fully covered. The prereqs. for the state scholarships are actually very easily obtainable, you'd have to be half brain-dead or just plain lazy not to qualify to receive it.

Man, that sucks, everyone should come to study here, the public universites are free even to foreigners
