Overview

Key Features

According to the METU Graduate Programs Directive, the normal duration of the program is four semesters (except the time spent in Academic Deficiency program). The maximum duration of the program under exigencies is six semesters. The students in this Economics degree from METU Middle East Technical University must complete credited courses and the seminar course in four semesters.

The Department of Economics, in addition to its noteworthy position in undergraduate education, has placed a special emphasis on expanding its graduate programs. The department offers four different graduate programs: M.Sc. with thesis, M.Sc. without thesis, Ph.D. on M.S., and Ph.D. on B.S. Candidates for these degrees come from diverse backgrounds, but the majority of the students are economics majors who want to deepen their knowledge and analytical skills. Candidates who do not have any economics background may be accepted to the programs conditional on completing an Academic Deficiency Program (as explained below).
