请问楼主在读博三吗？最近几届就业如何？

你好同学。是的我刚上博三。最近几年业界和学术都有，投行咨询，银行基金，澳国立的postdoc，迪肯大学，再往前有人去英国拉卡斯特，香港理工，莫纳什大学，等等。项目从我上一届才改成北美欧洲的五年制，所以以后就业会更加有竞争力。供参考。

朋友你好，商科几个系项目结构不尽相同，办公区域也是分开的，除了金融我对其它项目知之甚少。想了解金融项目的话我建议在帖子里商讨，这样其他需要相关信息的同学也可以看到。祝你申请顺利～

好的，想请问下楼主，本金融项目对申请人背景有具体要求吗？比如申请人必须是硕士毕业或者必须是金融专业的。另外，请问本项目是否需要提前联系感兴趣的教授？教授是否掌握录取与否的决定权？

Kittywang1314

没有背景的硬性要求，比如硕士学历，金融学科，只要你的背景比如科研经历可以说明你适合读这个项目就好。不需要提前联系教授，因为提供录取和奖学金的是系里，而不是哪位教授。本次见面会会有两轮面试，面试顺利的话会直接给出录取。如果本次没有被邀请参加见面会，或者没有在面试后拿到直接录取，也还是可以走常规的网申流程，有机会被最终录取。

谢谢楼主，想再请问下对于本科背景申请的同学是否非常看重科研经历或论文发表？

项目看重的是研究潜力，而不一定是现有的成果，所以没有文章发表不会是硬伤，当然如果有很好的比如说top journal 的发表是会加分的。如果没有发表，做过的助研，自己的学年论文或者毕业论文，大创小创项目，甚至是相关的课程作业，都可以是研究潜质的证明。好的成绩以及海外交流经历也是加分项。综上，申请博士项目没有一个硬性的条条框框，其主旨是把自己与学术研究有关的强项，经历表现出来，与其担心自己的短板，不如精心展示自己的两点。希望对你有帮助。
