<p>Hello all,</p>
<p>I will be a future CBS PhD student at Cornell University. Out of curiosity, I was wondering how is the reputation of the program? The program is offered through the College of Vet. Med., and I will be focusing on virology.</p>
<p>I would like to know its reputation because I want to be in a good position for a post-doc at either MIT or Harvard. I understand I need to publish many high-impact journals, but how would you describe its overall repuation?</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>Hmm… I can’t speak with full confidence but I know that if you really apply yourself in grad school you should be in good standing. I’ve seen PhD graduates of SUNY-Downstate end up as post docs at Columbia or Rockefeller University. Just stating what I’ve seen, I really don’t have any knowledge of the Cornell program.</p>
<p>Thanks for the reply. I will definitely work hard. </p>
<p>Is anyone familiar with Cornell’s program?</p>
<p>C’mon, there are 140 students in the program. None of them read this forum? lol</p>
<p>Do you realize how little that simple is in the Internet? haha</p>
<p>lol I know. Just trying to get some responses.</p>
