Thinktank/Research Institute Internship 2+yrs since Sophomore
Full-Time Policy Researcher after graduation (8 months)
Rec letter: Harvard Professor, Senior Researcher, Advisor, Research Supervisor/Professor

Opt out: CIPA Duke Northwester

Strongly inclined to Cornell AEM, visited the school two years ago and met several professors at a conference in D.C. Read one of the head prof's publications and would love to be in his classes/ work with him.
Con:  M.S job placement not competitive at all.

I am not a big fan of CU ( no offense)
However, my ultimate career goal is to work for Dvlp Banks, Research Institutes on Economics and Policy so I know that SIPA would be a great program too. For the alum network and location.

It is very hard to make the decision.

Any advice and suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Xie xie!

big cong!
why cornell's placement is not good?It's website has shown the placement and I think it's OK…
But if you care about location, columbia might be a good choice
PS. absolutely Columbia has the best reputation in China…espeically for students who want to return home country…

Xie xie~  Sorry for the confusion about the placement: the general placement for AEM is above-average for a Master's Degree. What I meant was I see only 3-4 alum work for development agencies, ie. World Bank, IFPRI for the past few years. I was a bit surprised.


I guess it really depends on what concentration you pick. AEM has great researchers and professors in International Development and Food & Ag Econ. I saw from your previous post that your are concerned about the future with Ag Econ.
If you are interested in getting your PhD and would like to work for big companies in the industry, the Food & Ag Econ program is a great choice.
You wont be taking as many quant courses as other pure Econ programs but you get to take courses in Marketing, Consumer Research, Behavioral Psych, etc. It is a more practically-oriented career path comparing to pure Econ programs.

Thanks a lot for your advise!!~~
Yes I do plan to continue PhD studies and I also want to say thanks to you since you have seen my posts carefully~
I have inquiried questions with AEM' s Xiao Mi (Linda, she is so nice and helpful!), she told me that they do accept MS students to AEM PhD and students could choose math and cs courses with enough flexiblity as long as they finished required courses.
PS. might Yale's IDE has better government oriented placement
