The Department of Economics is committed to providing students with a strong grounding in economic theory and applied econometrics in order to develop and estimate models of economic behavior of individuals, firms, and governments. NOTE: The Economics Department does not accept PhD/MS applications nor admit students for the Spring Term. Our PhD and MS Programs begin with the Fall Term.
The MS in Economics is designed to introduce students to graduate-level study in economics. The MS in Economics provides a strong foundation in microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics, in addition to allowing students to pursue some electives in their fields of interest. The degree is often earned en passant to a Ph.D. in Economics or a related field; we do not typically admit students seeking a terminal master’s degree, although there may be exceptions (part-time students, international exchange students, or other special cases). If your ultimate goal is a Ph.D., you should apply directly to the Ph.D. program regardless of whether you already have a master’s degree.
"As a student in our PhD in economics program, you will study with faculty who are experts in their fields, work with bright and capable students, and obtain a vast amount of knowledge of your field. Our PhD program is designed so that the motivated student can make steady progress toward the PhD degree." - Professor Carlos Lamarche, Director of Graduate Studies
Applicants must meet the Graduate School admission requirements.
