I just got an admission letter from NYU for an MA in International Relations in the Dept. of Poltiics (Grad. School of Arts & Sciences). I actually don't know a lot about the program and wanted to reach out to the board for your thoughts.
I haven't seen a lot of discussion about the program on here, but that said, does anyone know anything about the MA or about the Dept. of Politics in general? Good reputation? Since this MA isn't professionally oriented like SAIS, SIPA, SIS, etc., does it make financial sense if I'm not going to continue on to Ph.D.? The course selections sound interesteing, but will employers care about this thing? Is it just a cash cow for NYU? Thanks.
