Our Quantitative Economics program is designed for students who seek a deep understanding of economic systems through data-driven analysis and mathematical modeling. You’ll develop strong analytical and computational skills, learning to interpret complex economic data and make informed predictions about market trends, policy impacts, and strategic business decisions.

Coursework emphasizes econometrics, optimization theory, cost/benefit analysis, and economic modeling.

With hands-on learning opportunities including student-faculty undergraduate research collaborations, internships, and the Economics Club, our applied experiences will enhance your ability to analyze real-world challenges and contribute to evidence-based decision-making in any setting.

You will graduate well-prepared for your career path, including economic consulting, finance, policy analysis, and data science, as well as for graduate studies in economics, business, and related fields.
