The Master of Science in Economics is a 45-credit program tailored for students seeking deeper economic study than the MA offers, with emphasis on mastering advanced economic theory and honing research capabilities in economic modeling and econometric techniques.
This MS program delivers comprehensive training in political economy's historical evolution and modern advancements, incorporating PhD-level analytical coursework through instruction in current quantitative analysis methods. While some alumni pursue prestigious doctoral programs, others leverage their advanced economic knowledge directly in professional settings.

New students collaborate with a dedicated faculty mentor who, alongside the department's academic advisor, guides them through the curriculum and assists in designing a personalized study plan aligned with their academic goals and career aspirations.
