23 Fall Fin/Acct PhD 项目求比较，附placement

Leecz

Tulane University:

• pros: joint program，将来可以上acct的市场，多一次选择机会；教授比较愿意带学生，co-authorship 机会也不少；过去五年fin+acct placement 看起来还是略胜一筹；想体验下南方气候和风情
• cons: fin department 比 acct 略逊色，senior 教授较少；acct enrollment在减少，未来教职需求成疑；有飓风，可能留不住教授
  

University of Kentucky:

• pros: 方向比较全，侧重empirical corporate finance，个人比较感兴趣；教授比较愿意带学生做项目，毕业学生基本都有top4的coauthor paper；过去五年placement变好
• cons: 除了地理位置较偏，学校名气不大，没什么槽点
  

Drexel University:

• pros: corporate governance 很强，好几位知名教授，将来的推荐信和network帮助比较大；在费城，生活交流交通方便，个人对东部比较熟悉；过去五年placement变好
• cons: 研究方向相对受限；senior教授愿意带学生但比较忙，对学生要求较高，合作机会相对少些
  

一些bg：本科会计，硕士金融，目前对corporate finance，corporate governance，text analysis 感兴趣

Tulane比另外两所高一个tier。Drexel Finance的corporate governance faculty很强，但是我印象里他们的毕业生都一般。即使在一些top school，historical placement也是会计比金融好，这个属于学科间的差距。
其实你的BG和research interest去Tulane也挺合适的，现在Finance的JM也认top accounting journal。

Two adjustments for Drexel's placement:

(1) the University of Ohio should be the Miami University at Ohio
(2) Villanova University visiting 2021 (Did not graduate, so I'm not sure if you should count it as a "placement")
