      Pros

      Columbia University is located in Morningside Heights, which is beautiful. The university offers great benefits and access to an amazing library and museums across the city.

      Cons

      Depending on the Department, School, or Office where one is located, political maneuvering can proceed productivity. This may be an unworkable environment if one expects collaboration and the ability to take ownership of projects. Take it or leave it some offices are autocratic.

      Pros

      If you a PhD student, you never have to worry about money or funding. Professors have a lot of funding for different research projects.

      Cons

      The EE department/professors are not very supportive of the PhD students. Most of them are not typically patient with students if they are taking their time with projects. They replace them with new students.
