Telecommunications engineering programs are the most popular in California (12 schools), Texas (10 schools), and New York (7 schools).The best telecom engineering program in the United States is offered by University of Maryland College Park.(*i think) That school has an excellent telecom engineering program evaluated with five-star rating for curriculum and five-star rating for teaching.Top 25 telecom engineering schools:1.

The answer many expect to hear is that working at non-profits is simultaneously fulfilling, overwhelming, and low-paying but this is not necessarily true at all non-profits. Non-profits can vary in terms of size, organizational structure, and funding sources, which can greatly influence how quickly projects move off the ground. As such, in some cases, working at a non-profit may be no different than working at a for-profit organization.Having worked at two non-profits (one large and one small), I can give some perspective as to what it's like to work at and move from a big non-profit to a small non-profit but not what it's like to switch from a for-profit organization to a non-profit organization. My experience working at a big organization, which happened to be a non-profit, was probably no different than the experience of the person next to me. I came in at 8:30 am, did job 'x', and left by 5:00 pm without bringing any of my work back home. I think because the organization was so large that individual jobs and their responsibilities lacked diversity. In other words, there is someone to set up your computer, another person to train you, and another person who you call your boss. At a smaller NPO the person to fix your computer could very well be your boss and or co-worker. From the pay you wouldn't think you were working at a NPO either.Making the switch from a big organization where you're paid to perform one specific job to a smaller non-profit organization where you wear many different hats, however, was undoubtedly a big shock to my system. It was the difference between a large organization and a small organization more than anything.That being said, my current workplace would probably align with what is considered the stereotypical NPO experience - satisfying "save the cheerleader, save the world" line of work with a great, supportive team. The pay? Less than great. Do I love what I do? Hell yea - and I would do it all over again if I had the chance.School doesn't adequately prepare you for working at a small non-profit. The apt analogy is that "it's like trying to drink from a hose." This applies to small organizations regardless of funding streams, though. When I first started -- and this is specific to my NPO --, I had to learn about: Community Transformation Grants, Farm to School programs, farmers' markets, corner stores, super markets, point-of-sale systems, relational databases, and the rest of the 9 yards in a matter of weeks. Distilled into a couple of areas- I focus on the food distribution system, program evaluation, and data analysis. And though going to seminars/trainings is encouraged, it's not like school where you receive formal training. Instead, I've had to "learn on the job," which is very different than being in school where you have plenty of time to study a subject deeply.TL;DR/Basically, even when it comes to NPOs YMMV.

I think you should evaluate these conditions for every technology you pick:- How comfortable you are using it, do you like it?- How fast are you learning it, let's accept it some technologies just have a bigger learning curve than others.- The community it is very important ex: if you got a doubt or you don't know how to solve an issue, if the technology you pick got a big community behind, don't get surprised if you find a lot of people had the same issue.- The evolution of the code, some programming languages just get old ex: cobolI'd recommend you to learn as much as you can and the end it's not a matter of an specific technology it's more a matter of how good you are solving problems and presenting solutions.To be specific to your question I'd pick node over php and mongo over mysql because I like them more, but that's totally subjective.
