natofone Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Chicago has lost several good faculty in the past 4-5 years and their more recent hires haven't been that great (outside of stealing Wilkinson from Duke). They're also rumored to possibly be losing some of their heavy hitters this year. A few of their big names are also no longer publishing or doing much research. I'm speaking only of IR and CP. I don't know anything about American or Theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manchild Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Theory is not really a unified field like the others, making rankings somewhat (though perhaps not entirely) pointless. Main thing to know is not to go anywhere outside the "top-ten" or so if you want to end up with a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Descrates Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Here's the new theory rankings: 1. Harvard Chicago 3. Princeton 4. Yale 5. Berkeley 6. Duke 7. Northwestern 8. Johns Hopkins 9. Columbia 10.UCLA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwash Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 yeah i find these rankings a little questionable. i have a hard time believing that chicago isn't a top 10 program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Descrates Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Thoughts? Chicago seems too high. Its possible, but who would you rank above them right now. In terms of who would provide the best education in theory, it seems like it would be a wash among most of the top ten programs. So then we are dealing with who has the most cache in terms of placements, and on that count, it does seem hard to put Chicago in the same league as Princeton or Harvard. They probably belong more in the Yale/Berkeley range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrRockso Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-political-science-schools/rankings How is Tulane on the list at all? While USNWR didn't rank them, Tulane isn't offering graduate programs in PoliSci at all at this point. (If they were, I would have applied there....)
