Pros

Its a great school to conduct research in robotics. The faculty is excellent and involved. The robotics department also has necessary infrastructure. Great place for masters or Ph.D.

Cons

If you don't have funding from your professor, on-campus jobs are scarce.

Pros

Can be pretty easy if most of your work is office hours. I had about seven hours a week and most of the time there weren't many students.

Cons

Grading was a lot harder than I expected. Pretty demoralizing honestly; a lot of clearly ChatGPT submissions (ECE programming class mostly with freshmen who'd never seen code before, so not surprising). Grading paper exams was fine.
