Economics, MS

The MS program in economics incorporates applied learning experiences, flexible elective options and career coaching to prepare students for success in dynamic roles across industries. Students learn economic modeling tools and skills they can leverage to transform businesses, government and society. For the first half of the program, students take core courses in microeconomics, macroeconomics, and data science and econometrics, taught by leading economists with an extensive research record on these topics. A variety of interdisciplinary electives allow students to align the degree with their career goals. Additionally, students can attend a summer math boot camp before the program starts to brush up on key concepts. The curriculum also includes a collaborative project, where students apply newly developed knowledge to solve a practical industry problem. Students partner with a local corporation or the L. William Seidman Research Institute, which acts as an economic research and consulting resource for a variety of public and private clients.
