The program requires a minimum of 30 graded credit hours of coursework in economics and related fields. Students can choose from concentrations in either Economics or one of two finance specializations: Financial Economics or Applied Financial Economics. Within each of the two major areas of concentration, students course selections are based on their specific interests and on track recommendations made by their academic advisors in order to meet their longer-run goals. Courses offered through the Graduate School, listed as "GS" courses, do not count toward the 30-credit requirement.
