如果用＂一大把＂来形容UVA的中国人，那么该用＂一大群＂还是＂一大片＂还是＂一大堆＂来形容在EUR的中国人呢？你说这个之前有没有想过两校的总学生人数中中国人的比例？

不应该来这帖子，全是中国人。

实话是 这两个学校的finance都很一般... UvA之前的finance department的head差不多是唯一能发paper的教授 现在已经走人了...

just a one-year taught master..... Research level is not really a concern. To be honest, even the faculty has tons of publications on Journal of Finance/Econometrics, it has nothing to do with you.

reputation of the University and the city is much more important

一年的MASTER对研究能力也是有一定要求的，不然你怎么完成MASTER THESIS和取得学位呢？老师的研究能力直接影响他的授课水平和论文指导水准，如果你以后还想向博士岗位发展，更是要仔细研究本专业教授，副教授和博士的科研素质和能力。

没错
研究能力不怎么样的学校 何来的reputation啊... MBA排名再高跟一个读MSc. Finance的人又有何关系.... 也就唬唬国人了....

PHD level is a different thing. If you want to follow an academic career path, the research ranking is more important.

However, a non-academic career path is deviated far from academic world, especially for social sciences.

PKU and Tsinghua U are ranking much lower than most Dutch Unis in terms of economics studies.  But do you think their graduates are in the inferior positions on the Chinese job market, compared with those who finished their degrees in NL  or UK?

Moreover, most U.S students will simply not do master.  In bachelor phase, there are few things really research-related. Does this hinder them from going into the top IBs?

The reason is simple:  In the real world, there are not many works which can be called "research".  A top IBs equity research paper are often done by some MBA or someone never studied finance before.

My arguement is always: For business/finance/econ studies, go to the big cities, go to those prominent unis which sound better. In contient Europe, the universities of big cities are seldom being considered "bad".  (they are indeed outperformers)

You can say the university of tilburg are top ranked in econ studies. The masstricht Uni are famous for its PBL.  But when you are talking to an outsider about your university,  the first question often is "please tell me where tilburg is? in Canada?". I can tell you that is frustrating......
