Hi,
Could anyone please let me know good engineering schools in/close to San jose for masters in Electrical engineering.
I know SJSU and ITU are decent ones easy to get. Stan and UCB are high ranked. Not easy to get. Any other recommendations appreciated..

Problem is most schools do not have hours suitable for campus Master's programs for people with a full-time job, online is the only option and there are plenty of accredited programs out there from top tier schools.

San Jose State is a top school according to many Silicon Valley employers and I would assume that the Electrical Engineering program still is impacted and one needs a very high GPA to get in and stay in. I have worked with brilliant folks who went to Cogswell. UCSC also has engineering programs in Silicon Valley, although I don't know the exact discipline.
