This master’s degree is not offered as a standalone program; it is only available in conjunction with the Ph.D. in Economics Program. 

Description

The Master of Arts degree in Economics is designed to prepare students for a Ph.D. program either at Nebraska or at other institutions. MA students are expected to take the Ph.D. level core theory sequence. If MA students are subsequently admitted to the Ph.D. program at UNL, coursework and examinations taken in the MA program transfer directly to the Ph.D. Students interested in a terminal degree focusing on applied economics are encouraged to consider the MA program offered through Agricultural Economics.
