M.A. Program
of Study
This
program is designed for two types of students:
1. Tulane
economics undergraduates seeking joint Tulane B.A. and M.A. degrees
or B.S. and M.A. degrees in a five-year combined program, and
2. Students
who have already completed a bachelor's program in another discipline
or at another university who are seeking a two-year degree in the practical
uses of economics.
The program of study consists of 12 graduate courses. All M.A. students
are required to take two core courses:
- · Econometrics
(ECON 623) in year 1
- Writing
with Data (ECON 698) in year 2
In addition to the core,
ten field courses are chosen according to the student's interests
from the field courses offered by the Economics Department and drawn from
the
Master's Elective course list. With the approval of the Director
of Graduate Studies, certain courses taken in other departments or programs
may also
serve as Master's Electives.
