Can anyone give me a first-hand account of the Economics and Political Development (EPD) program at SIPA? I know there is info on SIPA's website but I was wondering if anyone had first-hand accounts of actually going through the program. Would be interested to know more about classes, projects, trips and job prospects. Any info would be very helpful. Thanks!

Hello everyone! I've placed my deposit for SIPA and I will be attending this fall as an MIA student. When I applied I had put down my concentration as Economics and Political Development (EPD), however now I am having second thoughts. When I graduate I want to work for the NYC government, the FED, CIA, FBI, World Bank or the State Department as a Foreign Service Officer. I know these are a broad range of jobs but I hope to narrow it further once I start school. I was wondering if anyone had any more information on the various concentrations at SIPA in terms of their culture, reputation, student body size and professors. In addition to EPD, I'm interested in learning more about International Security Policy (ISP), International Finance and Economic Policy (IFEP) and Energy and Environment (EE). It would be nice to hear from people who have already gone through the programs. Any extra information not shown at SIPA's website would be really helpful. Thanks!!!
