OK. My first post in this forum.
So, I am an international student
Undergrad university: Azerbaijan State Economics University, GPA: 4.1/5, Information Science, Automatization Systems.
Masters: Indiana University, GPA: 3.39/4, MPA Environmental Policy and Natural Resource Management (Fulbright Foreign Student Program)
Work experience:
2 years in the Azerbaijan State Energy company. Deputy Head of Environmental Protection and Social Impacts Analysis division.
3.5 years Integrated Biodiversity Management, South Caucasus Program by German Corporation for International Cooperation (GIZ GmbH) - Expert for Natural Resources Management and later Advisor for Environmental Education and Human Capacity Development
Currently I work as a chief specialist in the Azerbaijan Energy Regulatory Agency under the Ministry of Energy in the Department of Strategic Planning and Innovations and also teach Environmental Science in Azerbaijan Diplomacy Academy (for bachelors)
Research experience: I don't have anything published, just some co-author reports for GIZ
Languages: Azerbaijani, Russian, English, Turkish, some German
GRE: verbal 144 quantitative 148 writing 3.5 (but this was long time ago, enough to get Fulbright scholarship and go to IU, now I have to retake it)
TOEFL: 104, I guess I dont need to take it again as I have already received my previous degree in English in US
LORs: Well, I can get it from professors and former bosses.
Interests: environmental education, ecosystem services(ES) and biodiversity, integration of ES and Biodiversity into development planning
School: that is the question, I am not sure where to apply with my background, what are my chances, what is the minimum GRE I should aim for to get an admission for PhD.
I would really appreciate any advice. Thank you!
