<p>how's political science/public administration/public policy for grad school/PhD at MIT? Any input is appreciated. thanks! :)</p>
<p>hello? anyone know anything about this?</p>
<p>bump.......................</p>
<p>If you can get into MIT, it'd probably be better to get into schools of the same caliber with GREAT Poli-sci programs (Harvard, Yale, Columbia) to name a few.</p>
<p>I think Georgetown considered to have a good Political Science Department.</p>

<p>Uh, Columbia? According to the USNews 2007 Graduate Edition, Premium version, MIT is tied with Columbia for 10th in Political Science. Hence, there is no reason to believe that Columbia's poli-sci program is any more worthy of greatness than MIT's is. </p>

<p>Georgetown is ranked #41 in poli-sci in the USNews Graduate Premium Edition, 2007.</p>
<p>I have heard a LOT of great things from professors at Harvard, etc. about MIT's humanities- and social sciences-related graduate school programs. I can't provide you with a ranking but they have got some great faculty and such.</p>
<p>Really sakky. Well I learned something new today. I could swear I heard multiple people say G-Town was good in Political Science</p>
<p>milki: I think you're probably talking about Georgetown's School of Foreign Service that's so highly rated, not the University itself</p>
