Lines: 28 Hello, I've recently sent for and recieved application material for masters's degree at Stanford. However, I am torn between applying to the Computer Science and Aeronautics Engineering department. The problem is that there are a large number of courses I like in the CS department but also in the AeroEng dep. I am mainly interested in Aerospace robotics and have been interested in other fields in Aerospace engineering. The CS department seem more restrictive in course selection, whereas if I went for AeroEng I can still take some of those CS courses. The CS dept seem more suitable to me in terms of my background, I am close to graduation from a computer engineering program. But I am interested in CS because I like the Aerospace field and not the otherway around. Also the deadline for AeroEng is a whole month after CS so I may have a better change of getting everything in on time for AeroEng. Thanks for baring with me all this time, if you aren't confused as I am after reading all that maybe you can give me some advice as to which one of the programs I should try for. Thanks in advance Ray -- >>>>>> Ray Tang rtang@nff.ncl.omron.co.jp <-email
