Overview

The M.S. in Applied Economics is designed to provide students with a solid foundation in economics, with a strong focus on applied quantitative methods and data analysis.

Students will be introduced to a strong framework for analysis that can be applied to a large variety of areas like business and financial management, market research, international trade, public policy, health economics and public health, and even criminal justice and law.

In a world that is increasingly reliant on big data and analytics, the demand for professionals equipped with these skills will continue to increase.

The MSAE will allow graduates to acquire these much-needed skills and be competitive in the labor market of the future.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics the increased complexity of the global economy and a more competitive business environment will foster a rise in demand for economists, particularly for candidates holding a graduate degree.

Specific occupations targeted by this program have a significant job growth projection over the next ten years in Texas: Statisticians (43%), Actuaries (32%), Economists (26%) and Financial Managers (24%).

The 2020 to 2030 job growth projection in Texas for the main occupations targeted by the MSAE is 19.5% which is higher than for the Nation鈥檚 projection of 13.1%.

The job posting intensity for the MSAE target occupations in Texas and the nation is above average, which indicates that employers are trying harder to hire for these positions.
