<p>hello, can anyone tell me what the best programs for the following subjects are?</p>
<ul>
<li>museum administration/art history/archeology</li>
</ul>
<p>or</p>
<ul>
<li>international relations/diplomacy</li>
</ul>
<p>THANKS A LOT!</p>
<p>You can't skip directly to PhD?</p>
<p>oh i mean like separately sorry</p>
<p>One word of advice would be to break these things down:</p>
<p>An MA in IR/diplomcy is vastly different from a PhD in terms of schools.</p>
<p>Best PhD places are basically top poli sci programs (look at USNWR or other)</p>
<p>Best MA places, which are considered professional degrees: </p>
<p>Johns Hopkins SAIS
Tufts
Columbia
Princeton
Harvard
UCSD (Pacific Rim-focused)</p>
<p>ide say add LSE to the above list...and Georgetown.
But all the above have their area specializations</p>
<p>Tufts, in addition to having an excellent IR grad school (the first in the country) -- the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy -- also has a really good museum studies program. It might be the perfect school for you in that it has stellar programs in both fields ;)</p>
<p>why would you say fletcher is the best in the country. I mean it is an amazing program, and one of the best, but to say it is the Best is kind of pushing it.
Thats like you can't say any college is the best in the world. Harvard is not. It is all a matter of oppinion.</p>
<p>thanks for the tip lolabelle!</p>

<p>lolabelle's obviously the resident Tufts booster. Ha. It's up there. It would be a disputed first, though, and all those up there should be.</p>
<p>"You can't skip directly to PhD?"</p>
<p>-Sure you can.</p>
<p>Harvard extension school has a museum studies program I think.
I think I heard that Philadelphia School of Arts has Museum Studies.</p>
