Pros

The graduate coursework helped me to be better prepared for the research I conducted during the program. The research projects were interesting and enabled me to develop technical skills and contribute to the field. There was a lot of research support from the institutions and if you are diligent you can find funding opportunities through fellowships and TAships.

Cons

Not many downsides that I can think of.
