Excellent environment, teaching oriented, but not much research-oriented

Research assistant
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- It is in Chicago - Lovely environment - You can start teaching (as an adjunct faculty) if you are a PhD student or a successful professional - In some departments there are real stars (e.g., a world wide known law professor, an Oscar-winner professor, ...) - A very relaxed environment - Course load is never a problem for a phd student

Cons

- Quite expensive if you are paying for your tuition - NOT a research oriented department (Computer Science) - No protection from the school against evil advisors (which is also lacking in most US schools) - an expensive city to live in - course prerequisites are rarely enforced, which makes course levels/speed drop to the student with least background knowledge.

Great Place to Work!!!

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Because the faculty of DePaul University are not just professors, the opportunity to network and to be a part of a group of people that excels is amazing!

Cons

Unless you have many years of experience in your field, they will not even give you a look.

Good place to be a student worker

Student worker - technical support
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

As a student worker you are treated very well. They work well with your schedule. As technical support you get a lot of the skills necessary to do this line of work elsewhere.

Cons

Senior management isn't completely competent. You're thrown into the job with little direction and little reinforcement if you get lazy. You have to be a go-getter, like anywhere else but especially here, to excel.
