Through a combination of theoretical models and empirical skills, professional economists are uniquely equipped to evaluate public programs and business strategies, study and understand human behavior and markets, and offer effective solutions to policy makers, businesses, and households.
Many degree programs teach quantitative skills and provide experience working with data. Training in economics helps you to simplify complex, real-world issues, which makes it more feasible to identify solutions. Our work is further grounded in assumptions about human behavior. This helps us ask the right questions, and understand the important tradeoffs. Economics also focuses on drawing causal inferences from data, rather than just uncovering correlations and associations.
The core curriculum delivers the theory and quantitative expertise expected of professionals working in economics and finance, with a focus on applications and computer skills development.
Students pursuing the Applied Economics Concentration are given flexibility to enhance their skillset in different ways. Most will take courses to acquire additional data, coding, and analysis skills. Others may elect to prepare for a career in public policy. Still others may take advanced coursework to prepare them for further graduate studies.
Students pursuing the Financial Economics concentration will develop skills in valuation, security pricing, risk analysis, and asset management.
