It was indeed a tough task to incorporate the newly acquired knowledge into my original intellectual framework all at once. After I was repeatedly confronted with such challenges, I came to realize how important it is to integrate everything that I have learnt to solve real life issues. DUAL DEGREE PROGRAM @Waseda University While the GCS program in SHSS offers me broad empirical knowledge in social sciences, the Economics program in Waseda University equips me with solid quantitative methods that I can apply to conduct empirical research. Indeed, the well-designed economics program in Waseda provides me with a systematic quant-method training, which includes multivariate calculus, linear algebra, statistics and probability, econometrics, game theory, and programming. These skills are important as they help sharpen my research skill and enable me to conduct data-driven empirical studies that are increasingly important in both industry and academia.
