24fall mkt Rochester offer 求问几个问题

hhhh12399

刚收到Rochester mkt的offer，由于之前都是econ背景，对商学院了解较少，所以想问问大家：
1、Rochester整体大概处于什么水平呢？我感觉是tier2的学校。我看utd排名是62，不算太靠前，跟它规模比较小有关吧？
2、我主要申请的是econ（结果都还没出来，捂脸），申mkt是因为做的话题很相关，但就申了几所（可能就只有Rochester有offer）。如果以后想找教职的话，是不是去biz school更好呢？
3、我之前做的项目大概是applied micro，就是花大力气找数据，清洗数据，跑reduced reform。最近看了一些mkt的论文，好多都用到了machine learning，dynamic structural model这种，我甚至感觉比econ还要数理一些。学习这些看起来很高级的方法也是必要的吗？
感觉都是小白才问的问题，希望大家能耐心解答一下，谢谢！！

大概意思是hardcore structural做起来技术性很强，周期很长，不好发paper，好处是相对不依赖数据。reduced-form做起来和发起来要快一点，但严重依赖数据和/或独特的research design。这些一般是进program之后才需要考虑的事情，但是Rochester的program有一点“偏科”，他们faculty大都是做structural的，因此他们的优势可能是在技术上，而不一定在数据等资源上。这些对于上market乃至于后面tenure都会有不同的影响。

While I am not knowledgeable about your concentration, abed's comment sounds very professional, informative, and down-to-earth.

Again, I would recommend that you stay with the economics camp should you be admitted to a decent economics program.

I am curious as to what S16 is all about.

It's about the worldwide fame of business schools
HSW: Harvard, Stanford, Wharton
Magic7: HSW plus, MIT, Chicago, Columbia, Northwest,
Super16: Magic7 plus Yale, Cornell, Dartmouth, Duke, NYU, Berkeley, UCLA, Michigan, Virginia

For example, many of my Chinese friends with master's degree from US universities only know that Michigan and Virginia are very top universities and almost all their programs are very competitive.
However, they don't know that business and economic programs in some top public universities such as Minnesota, Wisconsin and Mayland are also very competitive too. They deem them as average public flagship public universities.

Again, another outsider take. UCSD, UWM, and UMN are clearly above Virginia and Dartmouth in your  ...

By the way, the Dartmouth Econ Dept does not offer a Ph.D. program (nor a Master's). With respect to research, Dartmouth Econ is overrated at RePEc (probably thanks to their idiosyncratic ranking methodology). As a matter of fact, Dartmouth does not make it to Tilburg's Global Top 100 Economics Department Research Rankings (more than 40 from the U.S.).

It's time that the conversation on Econ programs be closed for now.
