Cambridge is no longer the Cambridge it used to be. Even if u got ad from Finance/F&E of LSE, it still strongly dominates Cam MPhil Finance, not to say MIT finance, a definitely top 5 dept all over the world. For reputation perspective, in either China or HK, MIT overwhelms Cam as well. UK is not the old UK itself as well. Regarding faculty, MIT has R Merton, S Ross in asset pricing and S Myers in Corp Fin, both of whom are cornerstones of the development of modern finance, along with other extremely superb profs like J Cox, A Lo, Jiang Wang, Jun Pan, well, u name it, working on the cutting edge of finance. While Cam has what? A pile of craps and some void fame it accumulated centuries long ago. So if you wanna learn some 'real stuff', not matter academic or practical, and if money is not the concern ,go for MIT for sure, and throw Cam's offer into the trash! PS: if u understand some research stuff, and know JF,JFE and RFS, MIT is always among the top tie in publication #, while Cam, was, is and most likely will be, always a joke. Bear in mind, with respect to finance, the UK ranking would always be LBS>Ox=LSE>the rest. http://wpcarey.asu.edu/fin-rankings/rankings/results.cfm -- by 会员 kc08 (2012/1/31 21:46:06)
我也认同MIT>Cambridge,但是不清楚它们之间的gap有多大。 英国我觉得Cambridge=Oxford=LSE,高手过招,很难去硬分个高低。LBS的好名声来自他家MBA,这所不说了,商科不是oxbridge强项,念商的人更多是被学校本身吸引去的,LSE在伦敦中心的中心,银行就在学校门口,networking机会比伦敦外的学校真的多太多了。。。 |
