phd的困惑～！

小弟在看ＰＨＤ　ＩＮ　ＦＩＮＡＮＣＥ　的时候，看到他们的ＰＬＡＣＥＭＥＮＴ好象都是一些老师，教授的工作．难道就一定要找这样的出路吗＞？？？？？？？？？？

希望有经验的人士给指点一下～！

呵呵，大哥说的在理．可是我想知道，一般博士毕业了，什么公司能要？是不是学的约高深，就业的方向就约窄，到最后就当老师了｀！？？？？？

phd主要方向是做研究，但做研究并不一定要去学校，我听说一些还算牛的公司，找一些博士从事分析、评估工作，像学统计、应用心理学等。

PHD in finance 应该会有很多选择。关键是不要看大多数人怎么样而自己把自己局限了。

You need long term commitments to research, as least you should show the decision maker that you have such one when you apply a doctoral study. It is fine that you work in the industry rather than the academic after you get PhD in finance. However, dont state it explicitly in the p/s. Besides, working in the industry or academic is a kind of inverstment decision of your human capital. In GENERAL, working in the industry is "risky" but with relatively higher "return". Academic job provides you almost "risk-free" opportunity, of course, less "return". (I dont rule out the probablity that some professors earn vastly more than the guys, working 7/24, in inverstment banks.) Back to general case, it does really depend on your risk-aversion. Hope you can make a wise inverstment decison, not immedietaly but in four or five years.
