I am currently in a top 10 STEM Ph.D funded program. I don't have an advisor yet. However, after thinking about it for a long time. I decided to withdraw from my PhD program (after 1 month in ) and apply to a master's program at a different school. The reason I am doing so is that I am changing my major and also because my own program does not offer a thesis-based master. I don't intend to have a job in Academia at all, I just want a brief research training for 2 years on a thesis master's program and then go to the real world. Would the fact that I left my PhD program harm my application?
