下午收到Director邮件,confirm full financial support to the PhD program in Statistics.
其他一些信息:“We admit few students per year, keeping a steady state of approximately 25 doctoral students. We find that this allows faculty and students to interact easily and often.” 看来Cornell Statisitcs Dept确实是非常小,我查了查纯统计系的教授只有8个人,研究方向主要集中在machine learning。从方向上来说我还是很想去的;专排虽然一般,自己以后也不准备当faculty,也许学校整体名气对以后找工作有帮助?不知道这么小的系有什么利弊?请大家畅所欲言!
