Hi Everyone, So my situation here is: I have completed my Master degree in Higher Education. I want to pursue a higher degree but preferably not in education. I want to do some cross field study. My past experience has been in business and higher education, both having a focus on assessment. For example, I interned at J&J company at their process evaluation department, and at universities, I have interned at Assessment Center. I am really interested in assessment, and am thinking, maybe a PHD in statistics. My concern is that I don't have much educational experience in statistics. I don't have a background in science and technology either. I know for a PHD program, there is a strong focus on research abilities and data analysis skills. My working experience may prepare me for data analysis but I just feel it's not enough. Can anyone give me some suggestions on what kind of PHD programs that may appeal to my interests. I know this may sound dumb...but I really want to pursue a more practical and high-tech related program, which could promote my career to the next level. Thank you so much in advance. Heroes, professionals, PHDs please apply. Much appreciate it!
