Our approach exposes you to the rich variety of schools of thought within economics, and to the lively debates happening within the economics profession. We help you develop expertise in the complete range of tools used to analyze economic issues including: quantitative empirical analysis and modeling; historical and institutional analysis; conceptual analysis. You’ll learn how to use these tools in evaluation of policy solutions to real-world economic problems like: regulation of monopolies; gender and racial discrimination in labor and capital markets; environmental protection.
