Graduate students in research institutes and schools.

I studied for a master's degree in the graduate school, and now I work in the graduate school. There is a big difference between a research institute and a university. Studying in college or living in college. In general, there are many brothers and sisters in the research group in universities, and the learning atmosphere is relatively good. Brothers and sisters often leave a valuable "legacy" after graduation. In short, it is basically dealing with brothers and sisters. In the institute, there may not be so many brothers and sisters, but there are more employees. They are often newly graduated researchers (professors), associate professors (associate professors), masters or doctors. They are not as free as they were in college, and more often they have to rely on themselves.

If you want to do some scientific research, it is also a good choice to go to graduate school to study for a master's degree and go all the way. This is what I am doing at present. If you want to find a job after graduate school, college is a better choice. On the one hand, the atmosphere is relaxed; on the other hand, there are many job fairs and the like in universities. Students from our institute also go to various universities to participate in recruitment.

Finally, the treatment of research institutes is much better than that of colleges and universities. Moreover, the institute is really suitable for scientific research, and it is much more convenient to apply for projects than schools. Of course, the competition is more intense.

I am a material major, and I don't know much about your professional research. I'm afraid I can't help you.
