Thanks for your quick response! I am particularly interested in democratization. Also, I look forward to studying development economics. Besides the International Relation BA. I obtained a BA in Economics. That's why I wanted to choose the development study option---this program is said to be interdisciplinary.

That's very kind of you!!! I wanted to get in the "development study option" within the political science MA. However this development study program couldn't offer me the admission, I was just admitted to the political science MA degree. I suppose the only difference is that I cannot participate in some development study seminars. Besides, I have checked out the courses of the political science department on the website, but it seemed that development-related courses were not so abundant? (Or I just mistook the information on minevera). Thanks very much!

Thanks! Well, I was not very sure if I was right in my surmise... and I would like to know how people think of these two schools!

Hello guys, I just got the admissions of MA in political science from McGill University and the master's program in development study from the Graduate Institute( IHEID). Now I cannot make up on mind which one should I choose. McGill undoubtedly has a good academic reputation while IHEID seems to emphasize on practical training related to international affairs. Any suggestion, please?
