Universities and VLSI Specialisation
OREGON state university-- This is an excellent place for Analog VLSI, and what with the close proximity of semiconductor industries, post MS/PhD jobs would be easy. I'd rate this as very very ambitious.

ASU--Was impossible to get thru for fall 08 batch. This, I believe was mostly due to the fact that they took too many students during the last fall. So, this mite mean they won't be as strict for the coming fall. Just my assumption

UMass, Amherst--Very very good place for Digital VLSI. Having relevant work experience helps here.

OSU-- NO WORK GOING ON IN DIGITAL VLSI. Its a good place for analog. students from VTU, don't bother applying.

UCSB-- Good work in Digital as well as analog vlsi. I'd rate this as ambitious looking at the current trend.

TAMU-- very good for mixed signal. Very erratic with their admit.

UT Austin- Excellent place for VLSI, any discipline. Though they did give quite a lot of admits for Computer Engg stream, some really good profiles got rejects. So this still stays ambitious.

Gatech- The faculty strength in computer engineering in specific, ECE in general, is breathtaking-ly Huge... Plenty of opportunities in any stream of VLSI.

UMinn twin cities . This place is pretty selective. Good for digital vlsi.

UFL-- good work in digital VLSI. Lots of desi's though!

Iowa state university-- few prof's there are doing good work in dig. vlsi. Very few intl intake

UMCP-- very good for analog vlsi. very very tough to get in.

UCLA-- I'd rate this as the best place to be if you're into analog vlsi. Amazing profs. Amazing facilities. Very tough to get in.

Stanford Uni- 'nuff said

NCSU-- digital VLSI research is supposed to be good here.

Penn State-- This place is supposed to be on par with UMn and OSU as far as the VLSI research is concerned.

Virginia Tech-- Good place for digital vlsi. They offer Meng to most MS applicants.

Duke University-- Small Dept. but good research in vlsi.

UoA-- again, small dept. Not so great for comp. engg.

Rutgers-- Not so great for VLSI.

SUNY- SB-- I've heard vlsi research is almost dead here.

paragk:
1. Berkeley - obviously, this is where a lot of VLSI-CAD originated. Albertro Sangiovani Vincitelli is here, he is credited by many as the father of modern VLSI-CAD. Incredibly difficult to get into. They look for a publication if you are not a IIT topper. Design Automation Conference (DAC) or Asia-Pacific DAC, or else no chance.

2. Minnesota Twin Cities - not that famous, but there is VERY strong VLSI-CAD (and VLSI design) research group there. Prof. Sachin Sapatnekar, look him up. Very famous for recent contributions to logic and physical synthesis. The alumini from this group is littered across Intel, Cadence, Synopsys and they have EXCELLENT tie-ups for internships. If you are from a good college its possible to get into the MS program. The PhD program directly is almost impossible for non-IIT/BITS. (exceptions obviously, if you have awesome publications)

3. UCLA - EDA/VLSI-CAD labs are there in both CS and EE departments. Prof Chong in CS and Prof He and Prof Gupta in EE are all amazing. And have very very high industry standing. This is a group that is willing to substitute relevant work-ex for publications for the MS program. Not so for the PhD - you have to be IIT + publications/internship.


4. UTAustin - Prof. David Pan. Quite famous for "timing driven placement" algos. Very very good course structure and again good industry recognition. Everyone knows what it takes to get into UTexas Austin (and I didnt have it ) so I wont say anything more.

(from this point onwards the rankings/ratings are a little hazy, that is they are all more or less equally good)

5. Michigan Ann Arbor - prof Ivan Markov, good work in physical synthesis.

6. UC San Deigo - Prof Khang's group. No idea what it takes to get in. But it is awesome, a lot of cutting edge work.

7. USC - people know enough about this college I guess. Prof. Pedram is quite good, low-power design and CAD.

8. Univ of Wisconsin - a relatively small but excellent CAD group. This one makes it to "top" (in my mind atleast) because they are in Wisconsin ,which is where Mentor Graphics is from and they have excellent tieups with the group here.

9.TAMU - is actually mind blowing for VLSI-CAD. But I heard they are selective and look for IIT/big-univ tag (the CAD group I am talking about). I personally know a LOT of people at Cadence who are from TAMU and are considered to be some of the best brains at Cadence. For the MS program I have seen that they are favorable/partial to Pune and Bombay University.

10. Irvine - again not so well known but the ACES group/lab is making a good niche for itself. Mostly CAD and architectures for embedded, Prof. Sunil Dutt (ex-BITS) is the professor here. He is quite keen on Indian students (he came to my college and gave a lecture once, and he said so ), though the group seems to be partial towards Delhi Engineering colleges.

Finally a list of colleges that are not the "big names" but still have a decent VLSI-CAD group -

1. SUNY Binghamton - Prof. Patrick Madden
2. Univ of Cincinati - dont remember the Profs name. But the group is decent, a lot of the alumini are in excellent places like Synopsys and Intel.
3.Boulder Colarado - strong research in logic synthesis, which originated at this place + berkeley.
4. Colarado State Univ - again decentish research. Easy to get in. Prof. Sudeep Parsicha is excellent.

Outside US -
1. Toronto - Prof Brown, excellent group. Hard to get into though is what I gather.
2. Univ of Aachen Germany
3. Enrico Macii at Univ of Turin Italy.
