ComparPoli12314 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Hello everyone! I know academia is a gamble but I was hoping to get some insight. I am particularly focused on Afghanistan and International Political Economy. Could anyone give me more insight at the higher potential after getting a PhD from Georgetown, George Mason George Washington or American University in the Comparative Politics/International Relations field? Honestly I would be happy if I obtained an assistant professor position at one of those four universities after completing the PhD. Again, definitely know it is a gamble to bet on location but thought I'd ask anyways. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irfan Nooruddin Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Universities very rarely if ever hire their own PhDs; and all tenure-track searches tend to be national searches. So if your goal is to obtain an assistant professor position at one of those four universities, the advice would be to go to the best PhD program you can go to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
