I need some advice about universities.
Hello, I'm new here, so a quick introduction is in order I think 😀
I'm 16, and I enjoy physics, so naturally I decided that I would become an engineer. I looked at a few engineering forums and chose this one. I thought that if I was to do a degree in engineering then it's not a bad idea to become part of a community of engineers 😁. So here I am.
Anyway, now my dilemma, I want to do Electrical and/or Electronic, this is simple enough. Now, I have the option of two universities. They both offer different advantages and disadvantages. I have thought about this a lot, alas I still cannot choose one. I would like your opinions on this. Advantages and Disadvantages listed below.
University of Khartoum (UOFK):
+ Better recognized internationally compared to UMST.
+ Offers specializations in (i.e more specializations)
- The overall quality of the university is worsening.
University of Medical Sciences and Technology (UMST):
+ It's fully English
+ Much better facilities
+ Everything is of a higher standard
- Only offers two specializations:
The University of Khartoum gives me a B.Sc(Hon) when I graduate, whereas UMST gives me a B.Eng. I don't know any advantages/disadvantages regarding this.
I know it's a long read but I would be infinitely grateful if you could read through the information I just supplied and give me your opinion. I need to accept one of the applications in a few days, so I don't have that much time 😔. So please don't hesitate to post, tell me all you know regarding this.
N.B: One more small question... 😀 (Telecommunications is an example)
1. If I do specialize in Telecommunications, can I then do a Masters degree in another specialization? or will I be stuck with Telecommunications.
Thank you ever so much!

3. Control Systems and Instrumentation
4. Power Systems
5. Electronic Systems Software
- The lectures are in a language in which I am not proficient in, I can get by, but not at that level, I will have to self study all the material.2. Communication Systems
