<p>Do you guys think these are accurate?</p>

2

<p>I thought ucsb had a really good econ program... maybe my friend was just hyping them up because he goes there T_T</p>

<p>does anyone have a list of the top mathematics programs?</p>

3

<p>where is that from? i'm glad i see penn in the top 5 :]</p>

4

<p>is this really the case?</p>

<p>my son is going to be an econ major and he turned down two very high ranked schools on this list to go to a much lower one.</p>

5

<p>This is from a recent ranking of economics departments by publications in the top 30 research journals.</p>

6

<p>Good research does not necessarily mean good teaching.</p>

7

<p>I am glad to see Northwestern at #4. :)</p>

8

<p>Over years, Chicago/MIT/Harvard almost share/tie the lead, while Princeton/Stanford/UC-Berkeley next to the big three. Yale should be under all these 6. Based on many ranks.</p>

9

<p>HOW can University of Montreal be before Brown??</p>

<p>Other than that it looks about right (from what I've found)</p>

10

<p>Because Brown sucks in econ.</p>

11

<p>Brown doesn't "suck" in Economics. Being rankedin the top 25 in the US in Economics is very impressive. There are dozens of good departments.</p>

12

<p>Is that NYU Stern Economics? or CAS? I was thinking of a Finance/Economic theory double major and if it is ranked so highly then I will more than likely pursue it.</p>

13

<p>"Brown doesn't "suck" in Economics. Being rankedin the top 25 in the US in Economics is very impressive. There are dozens of good departments."</p>

<p>Yeah that was a bit too harsh. I take that back...it's just that Brown is known more for its outstanding english, history, psychology, and philosophy departments.</p>

<p>"Is that NYU Stern Economics? or CAS? I was thinking of a Finance/Economic theory double major and if it is ranked so highly then I will more than likely pursue it."</p>

<p>It's for CAS.</p>

14

<p>Is University of Montreal really "good" in economics?</p>

15

<p>Can you give me the link 2 were you found those rankings?</p>

16

<p>ummm, given the fact that Duke doesn't even offer business, shouldn't there econ probably be on that list?</p>

17

<p>Duke's Econ program is very good but not elite. I'd say it is, at best, as good as Brown's.</p>

18

<p>How does University of Montreal compare to US schools?</p>

<p>Is there econ department KNOWN or is it just luck with the number or what?</p>

<p>Still a bit miffed w/ the 24th in the world not far from LSE...</p>

19

<p>University of Montreal's Econ department is comparable to Rochester's or Minnesota's. It is excelleny, but not known by the masses. And what's wrong with LSE's ranking? aking it in the top 25 is an honor in of itself.</p>

20

<p>I'm suprised to see that LSE is the only English University in the top 25 and I thought it would have been ranked higher.</p>

<p>And U or Montreal is a popular safety at my school, I didn't know how it measured up to US universities...</p>

<p>No disrespect!</p>
