Overview
About the Program
The Economics program of Tufts University offers the following two degree program tracks, which students can choose from based on their own preferences and academic and professional needs:
- The MS in Economics: Course-based track — An eight-course program, which can be completed in one year, without a thesis.
- The MS in Economics: Research-based track — A twelve-course program to be completed in two years, with a master's thesis.
All students are initially accepted into the course-based track and may apply to the research-based track at the end of the second semester. The decision to accept students into the research-based track is based on performance in the first academic year. Both degree tracks are attractive to students looking for advancement in both professional and academic careers, and both carry STEM certification.
Upon receiving their degree, students pursue a variety of options. Some enroll in PhD programs in economics or related subjects, such as marketing, finance and accounting. The MS in Economics provides students with an exceptional background for doctoral study.
