zjppdozen Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) It depends on what types of policy problems you are interested in. Go to the program websites and check their curriculum. If you are interested in applied methodology in solving complex policy problems, you should choose the institutions who could offer courses in statistics, applied econometrics, program evaluation, cost-benefit analysis, risk analysis, mathematical modeling, and operation research.

indecisivemf Posted March 5, 2019 Author Share Posted March 5, 2019 Thank you for your insights. I think financial aid will also play a major role in my decisions also the location. I really want to be near big cities so I can get a job post graduations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
