About the course

The Master?s program, begun in 1934, seeks to prepare students for careers in industry, government, and junior college teaching. The M.A. degree is intended for those who seek a more extensive background in economics, either for employment as applied economists, or for another advanced degree such as a Ph.D. The following fields are available currently within the MA program: Health Economics, Labor and Human Resources, Industrial Organization, International Economics. Many students in the M.A. program are employed and take their courses in the evening, so the Department offers all of its core courses and a substantial number of M.A. elective courses in the evening. The program also attracts some international students, including several students from Germany sponsored by the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD), and the University of Paris II.
