Theo những chia sẻ của chị Khánh Hòa đã tốt nghiệp PhD ngành Kinh tế ứng dụng tại đại học Missouri – Hoa Kỳ về con đường học tập, nghiên cứu tại Mỹ thì ngoài năng lực học tập, chuyên môn, bạn cần sự kiên trì để đi đến đích cuối cùng. Một con đường tuy không trải đầy hoa hồng nhưng cho bạn nhiều trải nghiệm thú vị về nước Mỹ, giáo dục Mỹ, đặc biệt về lối tư duy nghiên cứu cho các du học sinh Việt Nam.

Tuy là khó nhưng tất cả sẽ vượt qua khi bạn thực sự sẵn sàng và đủ sự kiên trì để đi đến cùng. Và kế hoạch tiếp theo sau đấy là gì, có thể là chương trình sau tiến sĩ chăng?

Trong năm 2016 -2017  này, một số trường đại học tại Mỹ đang tuyển ứng viên cho chương trình đào tạo sau tiến sĩ cho một số ngành. Sinhvienusa liệt kê danh sách những học bổng Mỹ bên dưới:

Hãy lựa chọn cho mình một lĩnh vực phù hợp và tận dụng thời gian còn lại để hiện thực hóa giấc mơ đến Mỹ sớm bạn nhé!
