I did got my B.S. from a smaller university and there was more research opportunities as an undergraduate then there are for Graduate students here. You have to pay quite a bit of money to participate in extracurriculars, and the gym here is trashy, it makes me feel like I am on the set of Rocky II in Apollo's old gym. But on the positives, the teachers are pretty helpful because they are not busy doing research, and the classes aren't bad.

I spent 1 1/2 years here getting my B.S. and due to the univerisity's policy have been able to complete my Master's in only 1 year. In 3 1/2 years I've attained 2 degrees, one advanced! GO TO THIS SCHOOL!!

It is not hard to get in to the University. However, the admission and administration process will give you some hard time. Also, somehow SJSU does not have enough resources to handle any question regarding to study or admission.

Students are more tend to getting a good grade rather than enjoying learning in the school.

Electrical Engineering Grad courses are just about okay, with special bias towards ASIC/VLSI. The Department can have more part time faculties, especially top people from the Silicon valley. They are the ones who teach current trends and techniques. Best place to look out for jobs because of its vantage point among the Bay Area companies. The tution fee is raising exponentially. I started off in Fall 2002 with a fee of $3K for 9 units (International student), but now I pay $5K for 9 units. I dont see anything beneficial for me because of the fee raise. The EE Department needs to show more alacrity in helping out students. Many students are working professionals, hence there is a lot of competition in a class.

UMm.. I have been in this university for close to 18 months now and I still do not feel I know my collegues. I also feel the Faculty are not approachable. Considering that I have been one of the most popular students' and really enjoyed my undergrad..this college has been a let-down as far as my expectations go.

SJSU is a great school for Grad Studies, again, depending on what you want to study. Since SJSU is assuming most of their Grad Students have more than a few years of experience, they schedule almost all of their classes in the late afternoons/evenings.
This helps for the folks working full-time during the days and want to take classes in the nights. But of course, it cuts off possible interactions with Undergrads in terms of the AS clubs/organizations.
Definitely, Grad Studies will be MUCH tougher than undergrad studies, so I guess maybe that would be the trade offs so you rather go party with your friends/co-workers than hanging around school.
