一、工作经验:
1.现在国开行上海分行工作,主要内容是对接市内三个区县的政府类和大型国企项目,涉及风险评估、项目评审和信贷管理,管理资产峰值达100亿;
2.曾在《国际金融报》任见习记者。
二、课程技能:因为本硕都是国际关系专业,转专业申请,金融硕士在先修课程上面比较弱,有意识进行了补充(但感觉还很不够,特别是高数)
1.本科修过一学期的西方经济学、国际金融与贸易、营销学导论等经济类课程(成绩都是A);
2.本科毕业上了杜克大学和上海财大办的公共管理研究方法班3周,涉及基础统计学、博弈论、绩效分析等;
3.参加了萨尔茨堡大学和维也纳经贸大学办的暑期学校,课程包括banking system、国际营销等课程,成绩都是A;
4.研究生毕业前参加了德国期货交易所和复旦管院办的金融衍生品培训,包括经济学、市场分析技术、交易心理学等。
三、职业规划
1.偏好金融行业内有研究性质的工作,比如宏观经济分析师、equity research等;
2.非常希望在IMF、WB、UN、Eurasia Group等非盈利和盈利机构从事经济、发展、安全等相关研究工作;
3.希望能在目标国家工作,至少intern,所以学制要有利,而且知道申STEM专业很难;
4.地点话,美国偏好加州和NYC,JHU这样的,DC应该也有不少非盈利机构的机会。
四、自我判断
1.这一个多月基本看了主流学校的网站,先修课程短板明显,quantity基础不够;
2.标准化考试,GRE分数不高,TOEFL也不在有效期内。
3.打算一是全职申请,二是回炉再造,再学点姿势。


一, 2. normally the pre-req for a MSF (not financial economics nor financial mathematics) is not that much. have a look in CFA and you will know.

二, 1. cant imagine 营销学导论 is a 经济类课程 at all.

三, 1. macro research, and equity research are quite different. Given
三, 2. I guess you want marco research side much more. these are somehow things on macro more than finance, kind of monetary, international and development economics stuffs.

三, 3. this means that you should also look for school not only in US.....

四, 1. yes if you go for a more economics one (which fit your goal stated in 三, 2. much better than MSF). mainly lack of some basic math and stat course, and also missing some econ background.
this also means that your post is in the wrong page - it should be in the social science or economics page, instead of the business school one.
e.g. I don't think that a master in financial economics (e.g. Columbia MS Fina Econ) fit your goal well...

四, 2. getting a high enough GRE score is a basic assumption. I will say your is not far from that.

四, 3. 全职申请 is........a big minus for your application. Not able to handle simple things as application to master program alongside with a full time job is a very weak signal.

P.S. here are some master program that come up in my mind:
https://www.sais-jhu.edu/mief
http://graduateinstitute.ch/home ... onomics/master.html
http://masters.econ.umd.edu/

Thanks a lot! I applied several MSF and MPA programs. It's really difficult for a student with limited maths and economic pre-courses to break into the programs of economics, not to say macro analysis.

Now I had an offer from Brandeis Master in International Economics and Finance, which covers both economics and finance. Also, I've been admitted into Columbia SIPA and Georgetown MPP.(I missed the ddl of SAIS) I'm not sure which track will better fit my career path? The latter two programs are big names, but the former, which I believe, is a solid program that can enhance my relevant capability in economics and finance.

Thank you for giving me more suggestion!

MIEF is in the business school. It is indeed a applied business / financial economics program, and you know how solid it can be. The only point for taking it instead of other more famous school is: STEM.

You can always enhance your capability in economics in MPA / MPP with a economic policy stream too. It is just econ with application in public sector vs econ with application in business sector. As long as you are not comparing with a solid economics standard academic master, you will have other ways to make that small gap up.

Absolutely right. Brandeis has the edge of being STEM approved, which I believe can open more doors to job opportunities in private sectors(or say in finance) in America or China. Also, it offers me annual scholarships of USD 20,000.

After these several months, I consider equity research with a focus on macro or industry as my major interests. I'm not sure whether SIPA or McCourt will ensure me more probility to break in the equity research department of BB or boutique in US or HK. The pool of Chinese students in these two programs is too large, and their placement outcomes are not that nice in recent years. Not to say there are competitive CBS and McDough School.

I have to say the alumni network and courses in SIPA or McCourt attract me a lot, ivy league is still a brand for most people in China, and I am really looking forward to having class given by experts from the industry(like former World Bank country economist to teach sovereign risk in SIPA). However, regarding the high cost and more uncertainity in job searching, I just cannot make up my mind.
