Thanks! I just did the search. The post is helpful.

Hey JPeds, I'm from China and i'm now studying in the U.S. And same here, I also want to have some different experiences in London after four years in the U.S. Are you planning to work after this? I guess if you want to work in the U.S. for a while after this program, Chicago can be a good choice, at least it's geographically closer. I hope to take up some internships or short-term jobs after the master program and before going into phD. I'm just concerned if it's harder to to find a job in UK than in the U.S.

Hi cupofnimbus, Thanks for your suggestions!

Hey guys! I'm currently a senior double majoring in poli sci and French. I hope to do research work in the future but I wasn't sure about my specific research interests when I started my applications. Thus I didn't apply directly to phDs and only applied for research masters. I got accepted to LSE Msc IR Research and U Chicago CIR with scholarships, which are my top two choices. I'm now trying to decide between the two. I'm mostly concerned about the job and further study opportunities after the program. If I were to work for think tanks or international organizations after the master before I continue to phD, what are the chances of getting such a job? If I were to go directly to phD programs, what are the chances of getting into a top phD programs? Thanks a lot!!
