Vantaggi

Received a graduate research assistantship for an Engineering PhD at Penn State. The stipend was very competitive for a graduate program, and the cost of living in State College is affordable with the stipend. Access to high end laboratory equipment. Beautiful campus, most of the engineering buildings have been recently remodeled or are in the process of being remodeled.

Svantaggi

Your experience depends on your advisor(s) and how well you befriend your cohort. Choose an advisor you are compatible with and you will have a great time. Choose someone you are not compatible with, and you will have to change advisors or stick it out and not have a great time.

Vantaggi

They were very flexible with hours and it was a fun place to work. There was lots of downtime to do other things while on the clock, and an e-bike to get around campus quickly.

Svantaggi

Toward the end they got pretty strict about keeping your computer on a certain tab to take online tickets, and you could get in trouble for not doing it. It’s tedious work overall.
