Why have you chosen McCourt? I chose McCourt because of the unique data science for public policy curriculum, as well as the community that exists within the McCourt School.
What's the best part of your experience so far? My best experience so far has been being able to discuss with my peers the wide-ranging effects and implications of policy and politics, and how applications in class have been used in their previous careers. I feel as if the people in your cohort at McCourt are just as important to your learning as your professors. Both have allowed me to gain a broader understanding of the policy realm, whether it is in a formal academic setting or at a happy hour.
Undergraduate Degree and University: Bachelors in Economics. Rhodes College.
