Brief Description of the Program:
The
graduate programs in Economics place strong emphasis on exploiting
synergies between fields such as international economics, economic
theory, industrial organization, political economy, and development
economics (including Latin America and the Caribbean studies as well as
regional development problems). Issues are analyzed using modern
economic tools from fields such as econometrics, game theory, and
economic dynamics. While these are the department's areas of greatest
emphasis, graduate course work in other fields can also be undertaken.
The department's graduate programs are further enhanced by the presence
of complementary graduate programs in the College of Arts and Sciences,
College of Business Administration, the School of Policy and
Management, and the Latin American and Caribbean Center.
The
objective of the Doctoral Program is to offer advanced training in
economic analysis. It provides an excellent background for a
professional career at academic institutions, in governmental and
international agencies, and in the private sector.
