CorcoranCadet Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Postdocs are much more common in political science and sociology than economics. But that is simply the nature of the game in those fields. My general impression has been that taking a postdoc is still somewhat risky. Obviously it helps if you can work with a big name guy and get his recommendation and/or publish, but these are both things that take a large amount of personal effort.

intrepidtravels Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Has anyone looked into Stanford's PhD in Environment and Resources (https://pangea.stanford.edu/programs/eiper/academics/phd)? It seems to provide quite an interesting, broad foundation, and seems to give the opportunity to strongly focus on environmental economics and resource economics in later years? Would appreciate if anyone has any opinion on this as I've only just heard about it. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woowl2 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Hey guys, does anyone get admitted in Wisconsin AAE program? There are some rejections on GC but no admissions too. Does it mean that the committee deny many applicants with their cut-off standard such as GRE or GPA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
