<p>Wash U or U Mich? </p>
<p>I am looking to study psychology, economics, or sociology/social thought & analysis (the major offered at WUSTL).</p>
<p>I'm most concerned with the quality of teaching, opportunities for undergrad research, and strength of academic programs (particularly in the social sciences).</p>
<p>Any advice and opinions are appreciated!!</p>
<p>umich, umich is sick in the social sciences.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that U Mich has a stronger econ department as a whole - I do know that they're often cited in economic indicator research and analysis. As for teaching quality and UR possibilities, not sure. The larger classes at U Mich (or ones that are broken up in to smaller groups like Calculus) will be taught by GSIs (grad student instructors), but not sure about your majors specifically.</p>
