Every student must earn at least 30 credit hours to complete the Applied Economics M.A. program. This plan does not require a master’s thesis or master’s papers. A comprehensive final exam is required.
Students must choose between the Applied Economics track and the Law and Economics Track. Those two tracks are listed separately below
Applied Economics, M.A., Law and Economics Track
The curriculum is customized to suit the need of lawyers for more knowledge of economics, particularly applied microeconomic analysis of problems commonly encountered by lawyers and judges, and includes econometric analysis often encountered by the courts from expert witnesses on both sides of a case. Because many candidates for this degree plan prefer to pursue a degree while actively engaged in the practice of law, most courses in the degree plan are scheduled for evening hours.
