Earning a Ph.D. in Applied Economics equips you with expertise to perform research for corporations, policymakers, research institutions, and think tanks, while also preparing you to educate future economists in academic settings.

This doctoral program blends rigorous coursework in applied economics with an extensive research dissertation. Its foundation lies in microeconomic theory and quantitative analysis, complemented by an advanced macroeconomics component. Students work with their advisory committees to customize their specialized field courses.
The Applied Economics Ph.D. is a joint initiative between multiple University of Saskatchewan departments: Agricultural and Resource Economics, Economics, Finance and Management Science, along with the Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy.
