Economics Graduate Program

Overview

Join Us at Our Next Graduate Economics Information Meeting!

The private, public and nonprofit sectors throughout the world demand economists and analysts who are equipped with strong quantitative economics skills. The Master's Degree in Economics program at the University of San Francisco provides graduate students with rigorous training in the analytical knowledge and abilities essential to the challenges of changing economies, the investment industry, banking and corporate financial management.

The Economics graduate program offers opportunities for internships, directed research, a master's thesis, study/research abroad or a combination of these options. Graduates are also well prepared to pursue Ph.D. studies in economics, and have done so at such universities as Georgetown University, the University of California at Berkeley, the University of Washington, the University of California at Davis, Cornell University and the University of California at Santa Cruz, among others.

The Economics graduate program starts in the fall only (late August). All of the graduate-level courses are offered after 4:30 pm, and most are held in the evenings.

The Department of Economics also offers an M.A. in International and Development Economics and an M.S. in Financial Analysis.
