Economics lovers!
A new ranking is in place for the best department of Economics in globe; it is based on online voting. Alas! It does not include any Indian university; however, it includes an Asian University i.e. National University of Singapore. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) tops the chart followed by Harvard University and University of Chicago. For more, click here.
So, Economics lovers! Go and grab your choice university; of course, the admission comes with their tough admission patterns. :)
