Deciding between Harris MPP ($10k funding), CMU MSPPM-DA (20% tuition funding), and SIPA(MIA)/QMSS dual-degree (no funding). Would like to build more hard skills but find it difficult to give up NYC (4 yrs of undergrad at NYU). More interested in international policy, and would like to have build some leverage in data analytics. I am an international student so I am definitely looking for STEM-based programs for visa concerns. With a ds certificate for Harris MPP, all three programs will be STEM-eligible.
Can't decide at all (leaning towards Harris and SIPA though)... Any suggestions?
