CMU, UC berkeley, Stanford, NYU 的MFF要比MIT就业好得多,当然《这些学校的录取标准也比MIT难得多 -- by 会员 aipengyou (2011/2/15 11:10:43)
Agree with you... CMU, Berkeley and NYU is stronger than MIT when it comes to placement within MIDDLE and BACK OFFICE positions such as technology, risk management etcs. For FRONT OFFICE positions, MIT trumps CMU and Berkeley and NYU.
1) Go check NYU's resumes, how many of them landed a trading gig? 2) CMU has somewhat better placement within FO compared to NYU, but many of them are hired as coding slaves... Those in a BB that executes trades come from top business schools. 3) Berkeley is good, but again, many of them are hired into risk management.
In addition, the first MFIn class experienced 100% placement. Go check Berkeleys first placement report.
For MIT vs Stanford, both a tier 0 universities. Stanford Finmath people will probably be stronger in quant/structuring, while not having a chance against MIT mfin when it comes to corporate finance/IBD. |
