  1. I have been accepted by both programs and I am hesitating. I would like to pursue a PhD degree. Berkeley does not accept undergraduate level students to the PhD program directly, but it is common to be transferred to their PhD program later. I heard that Berkeley has a more famous research group and focuses more on the theory side. Intuitively, Emory seems to have better connections with disease and medicine research industry. So generally I suppose Berkeley is better for an academic career and Emory is nice for job opportunities. Am I right? Currently, I think my ideal career is a researcher/faculty at an academic institution. But it appears that Emory is a safer choice considering the chances getting into both research and industry fields. In terms of fundings, the MA program at Berkeley provides TA positions but the tuition is partially covered (without the non-resident tuition), while the PhD at Emory covers tuitions and provides a decent amount of stipend every month. May I ask for some suggestions? Thanks so much in advance.
