<p>So which school has the best program in those fields? what are the strengths/weaknesses oh each school.</p>
<p>H easy.</p>

<p>Second nomination for Harvard. Just look through some of the great professors/classes/etc. in the Gov and Econ departments.</p>
<p>I would say Yale or Princeton honestly. Princeton has the Woody Woo school so you can really concentrate on Politics and also on economics. At Yale you could do something like EP&E, Which is ethics politics and economics. There is just like one philosophy course for the ethics, but the rest is econ and politics. Just my take.</p>
<p>Wouldn’t those be the two most popular concentrations with the two most illustrious slates of celebrity faculty at the world’s top-ranked university? On what grounds would one find an objective rationale to not say Harvard?</p>
<p>If you want to combine the study of economics with the study of politics, you might have an easier time at Yale (Ethics, Politics, and Economics) or Princeton (Program in Political Economy, Economics Department). Harvard requires some sort of petition explaining why you can’t just major in Government and minor in Economics, or vice versa. I’m not sure how successful the petitions generally are, though.</p>
<p>Harvard does, however, have the interdisciplinary Social Studies concentration that is flexible enough to accommodate several Economics and Government courses.</p>
<p>Now that i think about it… your choosing between HYP. Forget about academics. Go 100% with the fit. You are already at the top</p>
<p>I would say Princeton or Harvard.</p>
<p>You have to apply to enter the Woodrow Wilson School while you’re at Princeton and apparently the acceptance rate is < 50%. It’s a great resource but at Harvard, you don’t have that restriction from entering a concentration and taking classes as you please.</p>
