The Economics and Finance Department provides an MS in Economics with options to specialize in fields like Regulation, International Economics, Applied Business Economics, or Border Economics. Students may also complement their studies with interdisciplinary work in Border Studies, Finance, or Computer Information. All degree plans require approval from both the Graduate Advisor and Graduate School.
