surrender Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Hey guys, I'm thinking about applying for PhD programs in applied math, with the goal of eventually working for a development bank or agency. My background is in economics (details below) - are there any programs worth looking at that incorporate econometrics? Right now, my top choice is UT-Austin's ICES program, since it's in-state and they have a track for students without an engineering or pure math background. Background: GRE: 1430 (800 M/630 V), taken in 2009 Undergrad: University of Houston, B.S. Economics and Political Science, 3.3 GPA Math classes taken: Calc I, II, III Grad school: Texas A&M, Master of International Affairs, 3.6 GPA Concentrations in International Economics, Economic Development, Multinational Enterprises Math classes taken: Statistics, Econometrics, Impact Evaluation, Trade Policy (Stata-heavy) Two years work experience, but in a completely unrelated field. Thanks!
