안녕하세요, 반달곰원장입니다.
오늘은 명문대학교인 The London School of Economics and Political Science (보통 the London School of Economics 또는 LSE)를 설명해드리겠습니다. 영국 런던에 위치한 공립대학교인 LSE는 University of London의 한 대학교 입니다. 1900년도에 University of London에 편입되었고 1902년부터 학위를 학생들에게 제공하였었습니다.
런던정경대학교라는 이름에도 불구하고, LSE는 26개의 학과에서 광범위한 법률관련 그리고 사회과학분야를 연구하고 가르쳤습니다. 이에는 mathematics, statistics, media, human geography, public affairs, international history 등이 전공도 포함이 되는데 그래서 런던정경대학교는 세계에서 사회과학분야의 주도적인 대학교로 인정을 받아오고 있습니다.
그래서 사회과학 분야의 랭킹에서는 런던정경대학교가 옥스포드나 캠브리지대학교 보다도 상위를 차지하는 경우가 많은 오늘은 반달곰원장이 전문적으로 컨설팅을 하는 비즈니스, management관련 석사과정을 중심으로 설명을 드리겠습니다. 재미있는 것은 런던정경대학교에는 MBA과정이 없다는 것입니다. 미국의 명문대학교 프린스턴대학교가 MBA가 없듯이 말입니다. 그래서 학력을 이야기할 때 프린스턴MBA졸업했다고 하거나 런던정경대 MBA나왔다고 하면 이건 완전 사기꾼이니 바로 신고해 버리면 됩니다. 그럼 런던정경대학교의 Management 분야의 석사과정들을 소개해드리겠습니다.
