Economics: Graduate Foundations, MS

专业介绍

This is a named option within the Economics MS. The Economics Master of Science–Graduate Foundations (MS–GF) program offers a terminal graduate degree that prepares students for high-level professional careers in government and industry or further study for the PhD degree. The MS-GF program emphasizes econometric training more than similar programs at other universities. Today’s job market and PhD programs in economics require strong quantitative skills along with a command of microeconomic and macroeconomic theory. Wisconsin’s tradition of supporting economic theory with quantitative methods is well suited to these requirements.
