Doing a PhD thesis is good on its own. Optimal Control is a great area. And if your question is "should I do a PhD thesis in Optimal Control or don't do PhD", then the answer is do it.
 
stochastic control

thanks for your answer Yuriy.
do you think it'll be difficult for a person who has a master degree or Ph'D in mathematics without experience to join team research in asset management in a bank ?
