The University of Tennessee provides a Master of Arts in Economics program via its College of Arts and Sciences. Prospective students must submit their applications directly to the UT Graduate School, with no additional application required for the Haslam College of Business or Economics Department. This program aims to equip high-caliber students for elite Ph.D. programs or professional roles in government and private sectors. The non-thesis option generally spans three semesters and mandates successful completion of a comprehensive exam in either microeconomic or macroeconomic theory. Alternatively, students may pursue a thesis track, which usually takes three to four semesters to finish.
