Parisienne Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Hi everyone, I'm looking into schools where I could do research in Political Econ/Public Policy. There are the obvious options -- Harvard & Princeton -- with Public Policy programs & PE subspecialties, but I'd like to know what are the other schools on the East Coast that have good PE departments (whether within a Poli Sci department or a Public Policy school). Yale, MIT & NYU all offer PE specializations - are they any good? Has anyone ever heard anything regarding NYU's Hamilton Center in Political Econ? Also, I've been hearing that Yale is very quali-oriented, so I guess I can't help but wonder how good they are in PE. Any other ideas apart from these schools? Thanks in advance!

Penelope Higgins Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Yale definitely has some good political economy folks - you could do a lot worse than working with Ken Scheve, for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
