lse 1yr econ VS NYU econ(1.5yr) 应该怎么选？

yvonnejiaUID: 3676881

申请季走到这里应该结束了
最后在这两个offer之间摇摆不定，希望各位大神帮我看看选择一下
不打算接下来读phd了，想要结束master之后找一个工作，对于留美/英没有什么执念，希望能够在HK找个full time的金融的工作
这三个项目目前据我了解是这样的

NYU ECON:
pro:地理位置超级好，纽约；stem以后在纽约找实习应该更容易了；
con:费用比较贵，读下来大概要80-100万了。econ的话找工作优先级会有点低。nyu的名气应该不如lse

LSE ECON:
pro:相对比较便宜点，一年的话40万左右。lse名气更大，据说HK的HR更认LSE
con:在英国找实习/工作很不容易；一年的时间，更不容易找工作；课程设置更tough一点，是不是更不适合找工作（但是据说这个项目一半的学生是要工作的，应该也不会特别tough，何况还有eme)

目前问的人当中意见大概是五五开，
目前有点偏向于LSE，但是一年的项目会不会很hurt，听说上课时间是9个月的，如果一去就开始在伦敦以及HK找实习的话，是不是能够利用起那三个月呢？
找工作的话是主要看和career service mock interview吗？在国内有过比较big name的实习，不知道能不能用。不知道这两所学校的career service哪个更给力呢？还有校友圈之类的
求版上各位给点意见

LSE

美国经济硕士的工作环境没有比英国好多少
回国LSE的名声大多了，英镑又大跌

请问你对lse这个项目中国人的job placement有没有什么了解呀？
我有点怕一年的项目毕业就失业
虽然我大概一去就会开始找找实习

LSE for sure.

LSE is as famous as NYU, if not more, in HK.
and you can get a more solid master there with a shorter period of time and with lower cost.\

P.S. STEM or not doesn't matter to you who will not stay US for a job. (对于留美/英没有什么执念 + econ major = go back directly. Those who can stay are more dedicated for this)

one more thing worth mention here is:
the LSE MSc Econ is a solid one-year academic program, leaving really few space for "useful" practical / finance electives.
75% of the course are theoretical economics course (micro, macro, econometrics).....well, maybe half of the econometric course is useful for you......

well, someone told me that the knowledge you learn in the finance field is not the most important for you when you are hunting for a job but mocking interview with your peers would be . Is that correct? And for ibb, they do behavioral interview when hiring people. True if I go to LSE, I will have less time to learn finance. If I go to NYU I could have three elective coursed choosing from stern. So given those information, which one should I choose?

And I heard that in even 1yr econ program in LSE, about half of the students plan to find a job, which means I am not that lonely when finding internships and jobs, right?

indeed the NYU one only allow 8 credit out of 32 outside the department, i.e. 25%, which is the same as LSE. The difference is the econ part of NYU is more flexible (and less academics and solid, i.e. less demanding) than the econ part of LSE.

yes. I vote for LSE even after considering this indeed. coursework knowledge is not the most important (or not important) for most job in finance (well for a technical role, one shouldn't go for a econ or finance master, but a Fina Engineering, Data Sci, or Law or etc instead)

and for sure you won't be alone. It is LSE, a school for finance. You will meet tons of classmates from various program (including your own, but also many others) who is interested in finance, and fighting for the same set of role against you. Therefore it may not be a good idea to be not alone indeed......

hhh I see that. Again, thanks a lot for your valuable suggestion. I think I would buy that and choose LSE since it's much cheaper and indeed, LSE is a great school.
