MA East Asian Studies, Columbia University MA Modern European Studies, Columbia University Each degree will be centered around their respective political economies and my thesis will be in either Emerging Asian Markets or the Political Economy of Europe. I would also take courses at Columbia Business School and the School of International Public Affairs. My first degree was in Economics from Harvard University. Will either of these degrees help out my chances for a career in business, development, or foreign service, coupled with my first bachelors? Thank You.
