I'm an Architect, Presently working with Christopher Charles Benninger Architects & Urban Planners. I wish to be in Urban Planning and Design for my masters. Because there where i find my sheer interest. So need some help regarding my decision.

I've always wanted to study at Harvard or MIT for my masters in Urban Planning but looking at the financial situation of mine and more over the crisis that has stormed over there, financial cuts through out universities and even excellent brains not getting jobs. I presently feel and have been suggested by many to go for my MURP study at Center for Environmental Planning and Technology (CEPT), Ahmedabad, India which is probably best school to my knowledge within Asia Pacific Region. And moreover everyone is suggesting me presently the amount of case studies for planning I can get in Asia will be excellent platform for studying this subject. Thereafter everyone suggesting me to go for MUD post professional program in any of world's finest schools for an global exposure. Moreover I'll be getting scholarship if I get in CEPT.

So looking at present situation, going in such path will have good impact on my career in comparison to a Graduate of MUP from MIT or HARVARD or any good school of world. I request you all to please help me in this regard.

Thanking you.
