Hello all,
After much research, I am still narrowing down my applications for Fall '13.
I'd like to know if anyone, particularly current students, has insight into the relative advantages (both in terms of reputation/networking and academics) for schools at Georgetown (SFS vs GPPI) and George Washington (Elliott vs Trachtenberg).
I'm planning to pursue a career in international organizations, but I'd like to gain concrete management and policy skills during graduate study. So it seems I can go either direction: an international affairs program with a management focus OR a management program with an international affairs focus - a GPPI MPP with international policy focus vs MSFS OR Elliott MA in Intl Development vs Trachtenberg with Intl Development Management field of study.
I've looked at the courses in each, so I'm familiar with the structure of the programs, but how are the different schools perceived within the larger university and do current/past students seem to have better opportunities in one of the schools over the other?
