- Notes
- TTPB: NYU is very popular mainly due to some very well recognized professors like Yann Lecun and Kyunghyun Cho. It is very unlikely as a Master student to do research with them (they will probably work only with PhD and post-docs). Also, maybe you would see only 2 courses with them; the rest of the course would be given by professors that you have probably never heard about. If you look at the statistics, mathematics, and computer science rankings in USNEWS, you'll see that Columbia is better ranked than NYU in all categories. Also, if you visit this link, you'll see that Columbia has a higher AI research index than NYU https://medium.com/@chuvpilo/ai-research-rankings-2019-insights-from-neurips-and-icml-leading-ai-conferences-ee6953152c1a . For me, Columbia is a no-brainer.
