Is it worth doing a PhD at an unknown University?
Hi
I am considering doing a PhD in electronic engineering, at an unknown, under acknowledged University. When local people are asked they say, "oh, do they do engineering there?".
However the topic is great, really frontline smart stuff, and the supervisor is top notch too, with many contacts throughout the world. I would like to stay at the University but not to do a PhD that will hardly be recognised by anyone in industry.
Does anyone have any advise on this subject? Is it even worth doing a PhD in terms of pay and opportunity throughout the world.
Cheers
