Vantaggi

There are several departments and facilities. There is a large student community you can interact with and are good.

Svantaggi

Salary, position and promotion are very unsatisfactory. Like everywhere, the PIs try to exploit to the maximum extent, no ethics. Mostly people coming from abroad lack this commercial outlook and also due to their visa restrictions, get exploited. Most of the PIs themselves are mediocre level of researchers struggling for their own survival and beneftis, so will think about the benefit of students or employees only if benefiting the employees benefits themselves. Health insurance costs much more compared with universities in other states. Salaries of Postdocs /RAs are very less in comparison to other places.

Vantaggi

My supervisor was fantastic: provided good feedback, flexibility in work schedule, opportunities for professional growth.

Svantaggi

Usually 1-2 year contract, determined by grant funding and availability Workplace experience is more dependent on the individual researcher/research lab you end up working for than the university as a whole
