MS Economics at Northeastern University

Northeastern University, United States

Programme overview

The Master of Science in Economics program focuses on applied economic policy analysis, with broad specialization areas. The program is large enough to support a full slate of core and area courses each year, yet small enough to maintain a sense of community among the students. The program is especially appropriate for those who wish to work in or return to positions in government, teaching, finance, or industry while providing a rigorous basis for those who want to continue their studies to the doctoral level. Offered at: Boston, Seattle.
