Applied Economics, Master of Science at Johns Hopkins University

Programme overview

Economic analysis is no longer relegated to academicians and a small number of PhD-trained specialists. Instead, economics has become an increasingly ubiquitous and rapidly changing line of inquiry that requires people with the specialized skills to analyze and interpret economic data, and the ability to make decisions about national and global markets and policy. Such skills are a vital part of everything from health care to fiscal policy, from foreign aid to the environment, and from financial risk to real risk.
