IR MAs, MPPs, and MPA's: Let's talk concentrations......

Graduate School

<p>If you are in the policy field what is your concentration, or what concentrations are you considering? And why?</p>

<p>For me my MA is in Global Communication and I'm considering three concentrations:
- Strategic & Security Studies
- IT/Information Technology
- International Law</p>

<p>Are there any concentrations that are saturated, or that are inherently bad? i.e. doing health is bad because you're competing with Masters of Public Health, or International Law is bad because you're competing with Law grads, etc. </p>

<p>Moderator: I'm making a separate post from the "So you want to be an MA thread" as my intention isn't for this thread to be a 'what chance do i have of getting into XXX' or a biography type thread with people posting their stats.</p>

<p>I know that for Georgetown’s SSP, the concentration isn’t listed on the degree. It’ll just say MA, Security Studies, or something along those lines. What does your school say about this?</p>
