Definitely a subfield thing in part. Highly theoretical CS PhDs (complexity theory, algorithms, etc - the folks who are mathematicians in computer scientist's clothing) almost always require postdocs, both because they…
I've had dozens of Chinese students in my classes and graduate rotations. I'm in a technical field and it's a competitive program, and I don't think I've ever encountered a student who couldn't cut it in terms of doing…
