标题: ask funnytiger for Phd in finance

funnytiger, could you tell me how long it is averagely going to take to finish Phd in finance    after I finish 2 years    studying in Master in Finance? I think timing    between Phd candidate from master graduate and    hd candidate from Undergraduate will be different.


I am thinking to apply for Phd in finance from one of Asian school a year later, because I like to work in Asian area, and I    think it will save    me time to finish Phd in asian school. Am I right? And could you recommend a couple of asian school for me? Do they normally require GMAT or GRE?


Hope you're not overwhelmed. Really appreciate!

first, I would like to let you know that I am NOT a PHD student. So if anyone who is currently a student, please correct me if I am wrong.


In US, average time you have to spend for finance PHD is about 6 years. your MA degree won't help you much in terms of length of study(there are special cases though)


a Biz PHD in UK, Singapore, Canada is a nice degree, but it is far different from a US Biz degree. you won't find the similar emphasis on research outside US (again, there are special cases). After all, it is your research paper that will land you a decent job


if you just want to work in a finance company in asia, I guess a PHD from local school should be just fine. But if you want life-changing experience, I guess US Biz PHD maybe the only choice you have.


honestly, I don't know that many asian biz schools. but I suppose, big three in HK can help you to land a job in HK and maybe mainland China. you have to check each school's website to find out whether GRE or GMAT is required.


hope this helps
