NOTE: We enroll new PhD students in the Fall of odd-numbered years (every other year). We will begin accepting applications for Fall 2023 enrollment on August 15, 2022 and continue doing so until February 15, 2023.
An undergraduate major in economics is desirable but not necessary. Applicants must have a strong mathematics background, including one semester of matrix algebra and at least one year of calculus. Though not required, a course in real analysis is also strongly recommended. Students should also have a minimum GPA of at least 3.3.
Applicants must apply online. As part of that process, please submit the following:
