发帖数: 254 | 2 Of course PhD in Finance has better job market. As for your second question
, it's harder to get into a finance program. But, once you are in the
program, economics is harder to complete (the dropout rate is pretty high).
These are just my opinions.

The placement of top econ programs (Harvard) are more impressive than that
of top finance programs(Chicago,Stanford), but finance jobs are much more
lucrative. |

发帖数: 740 | 7 Another thing, the placement goes down very fast as the ranking goes down.
If you check Columbia's (10th in econ) placement, you'll see it sucks so
much. |

But those survivors are as competitive as, if not more competitive than
finance Ph.D.s, especially from top econ programs.
