COMPARE Does Anyone Know Rutgers FSRM and RPI FERA

[wenbo]

I will choose between those two programs.

FSRM is under stats departments of Rutgers at New Brunswick. The program concentrates on financial statistics.

FERA is under Lally School of Management at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. I heard that teaching quality there are good enough. But I worry its location which is 2-3 hours to NYC and Boston by car

Any comment would be appreciated! Thanks a lot.

I reported on Rutgers FSRM program when it was first announced in 2010.

It appears to grow while co-existing with the other two Rutgers programs.
Haven't heard much about RPI programs from their graduates.
