34岁去美国读PHD是不是太大了

wangjuan8000

本人男性，想两年后去美国读个PHD，是不是年龄太大了，到那时已经34周岁了，还得苦熬4年，出来已经38了，不知值不值，困惑中。望高人指点。

你是否感兴趣是关键。做研究工作。看PAPER。 自己感兴趣的事情，多晚都不晚。虽然不一定能出成绩，但是自己做的开心就好了

Never too late.

我比你大，女的，我都要去读。呵呵。

也不一定不出成果。看专业基础，数学基础，和研究能力。如果你以前的工作比较多的涉及到分析，比如咨询公司，或大公司做到中层以上，你比一些年轻人反而有优势。

My father-in-law came to U.S. studying for his Ph.D. when he was 38.  He left my wife and my mother-in-law in China during the program but got them to live in U.S. after he found a job upon completion of his dotoral degree.  He is now a tenured professor at an univerisity.

I got my own Ph.D. when I was 26 but I am applying for a MBA this year, at the age of 36.

My advice: don't stop learning in your life.  Life is a process not a destination, because the destination for life is "death".  If you are not brave enough to pursue of your dream, your life will be a plain sheet of paper.

34 is not old, my father started his Phd in France at age of 45, and he got it 5 years later (50).

同意，我36多了才想到读MBA，不过无所谓的。
