标题: MFE选校纠结啊。。UMN Vs NYU-Poly [打印本页]

在UMN financial Mathematics & NYU-poly MFE 中选。。

UMN FM：学校还行，数学系不错！但不清楚这个项目怎样，这个是Professional Master's degree...07年开的。UMN的数学我觉得重点放在PHD上吧。Location is not so good compared to NYC. BTW，课程选择余地少，还有个prepartory courses。。。要花掉一年。

NYU-poly: Great Location, 找实习方便些，总共费用减去奖和UMN差不多，但program在NYC不行，MFE在NYC太多。。但事在人为，who knows... BTW 这个学校争议比较大，就怕实习也找不到，东西也没学到。。。

anybody can help？

UMN bro, not even close

I heard some that UMN's program is too new to be competitive in

the job market...And twin cities don't seems prosperous in its

financial industry.

UMN....楼主太把location当回事情了

作者: huangsiyan 时间: 2011-4-28 20:54

don't get obsessed with poly's location man, in NYC we have

candidates from Columbia (MSFE, MAFN, MSOR, Stats, MPA, hell even

EE/CS/ME..you name it), NYU, Baruch, Rutgers, Upenn, Yale, Princeton,

etc. that rank above Poly's MFE in terms of Wall St. job

accessibility

but yeah UMN is a regional school and you'll prolly also be

looking for job opportunities in the north. check their website to

see where did they place their students.

yeah...So, in twin cities, since UNM is flagship there, maybe it

is easier to get a chance than poly though there's not much intern

for us...

even in NYC, UMN's reputation is on par with other big state

schools like OSU/MSU/PSU/UWisc etc. which place a certain number of

their students on Wall St. Not a target, but a more decent choice

than Poly.

yeah...But in some forum like quantnet, some said UMN FM is like

a joke compared to its MS or PHD in mathematics...and someone called

ANDY said its director is not so responsible for its program and will

step down soon...And there isn't any updated figures can tell about

the placement...
