Covering the business of education and training

Two sisters, 19 and 21, received PhDs in economics from New York University yesterday.

At 13- and 14-years old the girls graduated from college. Two years later, they received their Master's degrees in international policy studies from Stanford University.

Now, 19 and 21, Angela and Diana Kniazeva, have their doctoral degrees in economics from NYU's School of Business AND assistant professorships of finance at the University of Rochester.

Both girls were home schooled in their native Russia.
