PhD in Economics in Miami United States | University of Miami

Candidates for admission are required to hold a baccalaureate degree. Official transcripts for all undergraduate coursework and any post-graduate coursework from each university attended (including summer school, part-time study, or post-graduate, even if only for one course) must be sent directly to the Graduate Business Programs office. An additional final transcript showing the degree conferred and date of graduation should be sent after completion of any coursework still in progress at the time of admission.


Three recommendation letters are required. It is strongly preferred that all letters be written by academics. They can be your previous instructors or your advisors. In some cases, it may be appropriate to ask non-academics, as long as they can speak about academic preparation and performance. Recommendations should address your academic performance, motivation, ability to conceptualize and deal quantitatively, and research potential. Evidence of research capability should be emphasized.
