Hello everyone, i am going to graduate this summer with what is, on paper, a Bachelor in Business Administration, even though it is very econ oriented (basically 7 courses in my bachelor are econ (micro,macro,stats,econometrics,exc…)), there is everything that should be included in any bachelor in economics + math courses that include real analysis, linear algebra, exc). I want to pursue a career in evidence-based policy making and I already have an offer from one of the most prestigious masters in economics in EU. I really do not know if I should just continue with a Master in Public Policy (SciencesPo, Hertie, exc) or go into a Master in Economics to signal that I am good on the quant side, I bet it's generally better regarding employment prospects, but I am not thinking of going into academia and plain research. I don't think I am even interested in plain economic consultancy (mergers, competition, arbitration). I like working with data and I fear that, except the best MPPs (mainly US-based) I might be perceived as too soft.

    Thank you in advance!

    Should I get a master in economics or public policy?
