mostlygoo Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Just curious if anyone has any experience with GW's PSP MA program. I know it's not a highly ranked program in general, but I'm wondering if anyone has any insight on whether the interdisciplinary curriculum would give enough of a philosophical grounding to someone who's looking ahead toward doctoral study (and not in political philosophy) at some point? Asking because it's one of the few local MA programs here in the DC area, and I was accepted with a fair amount of funding. But it's billed as a "non-traditional" model because it leans so heavily on the social policy side, and so I wonder if (again, reputation aside) the program would limit my options down the road. I'm trying to get more info from the program as well, but thought I'd check in here to see if anyone might be familiar with it. (A little background here, too -- I'm an older grad applicant coming in without a philosophy undergrad degree, just a handful of grad-level classes I've taken; so I know getting an MA is likely necessary for me to have a realistic shot at *any* doctoral program. So a program with real philosophical breadth is important to me - which is one reason I'm reaching out here, to see if maybe the program offers more than what I can tell from the website.)
