The Master of Science in Economics at NYU Abu Dhabi encompasses the demanding requirements of modern economic theory and practice.
The program provides graduates with the theoretical and quantitative foundations for a successful career in national and international policymaking institutions, or for continuing PhD studies at the world’s best doctoral programs in economics.
Students will learn to:
- Collect, analyze, and present economic data using the latest statistical, econometric, and machine learning methods.
- Assess current social and economic challenges (e.g., the sustainability of a social security system or the impact of a change in the tax code) through the lens of state-of-the-art empirical, theoretical, and computational models.
The master's program builds naturally on an undergraduate major in economics, engineering or mathematics. The program is housed within the Social Science division, leveraging significant teaching and research strengths and drawing on an international faculty and student body. Students will benefit from the intercultural insights, the broadest international challenges, and the nuanced role of economics within the full array of social science methodologies.
