VikSharma Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 And if someone has info on funding etc that would be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treasuries Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 The top econometrics programs are in Yale, LSE and UCSD. Here is a good ranking in econometrics. Econometric Rankings, 1989-1999 I think Yale will immediately fund you if you get into its program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquareSquare Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Canada: Check Toronto Econ department, and even better UToronto's Master in Mathematical Finance. It's not exactly Econometrics, but depending on your area of interest it can prove to be both highly relevant and excellent in terms of career prospects. Aside from that, the usual suspects: Queens, SFU, UBC, Western. US: Yale, Penn State, UCSD, the list is long and will vary depending on specific research areas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalfien Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Yale does automatically fund anyone who gets in. Lowest package this year was 28.7k + health for 6 years. also undergrad econometrics is very very different from grad econometrics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EconPL Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I agree. Yale, LSE and UCSD are definitely places to do econometrics. The problem with LSE is that the funding issue. It does not necessarily fund all students but if you are good they will find money for you :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
