Pros

The school has a good reputation in Electrical Engineering. The faculty is highly qualified. Some top tier schools may have more classes focused on your area of concentration, however you can most likely fill the requirements for a graduate degree with classes that are interesting to you. Plenty of connections with industry due to the centers associated with the university and the location. Many of the students have TAs, though some have RAs. If you would like to get a decent job after your graduation, my advice would be to make as many connections as early on possible. (Industry internships, etc.)

Cons

The degree alone will not be your pass into top companies (though the converse is true only for a few schools.)
