Finance PhD选校 HKU vs. UCI

jessi_995

HKU的导师一般带学生写paper，往届学生毕业前能至少有一篇solid B的刊目，placement下限高。 UCI更靠自己（北美似乎都比较偏向这样），但感觉faculty也蛮supportive的，placement上限不错，地方宜居。 历史placement： ***:handshake: HKU:*** **2024** Lingnan University National Chengchi University National Taiwan University The University of Manchester **2023** Soochow University The Hong Kong Polytechnic University The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology The University of Manchester Xiamen University **2022** The Hong Kong Polytechnic University University of Macau University of Toronto (Post-doc) Xiamen University **2021** Capital University of Economics and Business University of Glasgow Xiamen University (2 positions) **2020** Peking University, HSBC Business School Renmin University of China Shenzhen University, College of Economics University of St. Gallen, School of Finance **2019** Wuhan University, School of Economics and Management **2018** The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Post-doc) Lingnan University, Department of Economics University of Bath, School of Management **2017** The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, School of Management and Economics Deakin University, Deakin Business School Sun Yat-sen University, Lingnan (University) College **2016** The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (Post-doc) Lingnan University, Department of Finance and Insurance Monash University, Department of Banking and Finance Victoria University of Wellington, School of Economics and Finance **2015** The Chinese University of Hong Kong, CUHK Business School The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, School of Accounting and Finance Monash University, Department of Banking and Finance **2014** Hong Kong Baptist University, Department of Finance and Decision Sciences Sun Yat-sen University, Lingnan (University) College The University of Hong Kong (Post-doc) Xiamen University, Institute for Financial and Accounting Studies **2013** Shanghai Advanced Institute of Finance The University of Hong Kong (Post-doc) (2 positions) :handshake: UCI: **2024** Renmin University of China **2023** Babson College (国内拿了复交) **2022** Baylor University **2021** Southern University of Science and Technology Nankai University, China Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, China Monash University **2019** Bentley University **2017** NEOMA Business School Hong Kong Baptist University **2016** University of Minnesota **2015** Florida State University **2014** University of Texas, Rio Grande Valley Purdue University **2013** Syracuse University California State University, Fullerton **2012** UNIST, Ulsan Korea **2009** San Francisco State University Stanford Consulting Group Korea Capital Market Institute California State Polytechnic University, Pomona

UCI毕业做得好也许能去HKU，你HKU毕业能去UCI吗？所以选择其实是obvious的。

<br /> <br /> UCI去不了HKU，这两年HKU的门槛很高，招的都是基本都是MIT, Wharton毕业的学生，除非在UCI有信心做出比这些学校毕业生更好的成果。HKU还真有place去BU的，虽然也算outlier

去BU的是econ PhD不是finance, 当然你如果觉得HKU去UCI的概率比UCI去HKU的概率要大那另当别论。

HKU这边做学术导师至少会带着发一篇JCF JBF这样的paper 下限稍好
UCI 去babson的学生的导师说似乎还真有可能place到HKU 但是有location bias 当然也是带了MS（学生也很厉害）

她委员会好几个都是fin professor。这两个都是很困难的事情，没必要比较概率。

属实，感觉如果想留在北美UCI better,但是亚洲就真不好说了。
