以下这是我收到的信息:
On behalf of the Department of Economics at the University of Texas at Austin, I am writing to introduce you to our new one-year Master’s program. We have specially designed a terminal Master’s degree with a 10-month, 10-course curriculum for students seeking rigorous training in economic theory and analytical methods.
An undergraduate degree in Economics is not required for applicants. A strong quantitative background, along with some exposure to economics courses, is expected.
The program is suitable for students with any of the following goals: (i) Qualify for jobs in the private or government sector that require greater expertise in economic, analytical, and statistical tools than provided by an undergraduate degree; (ii) Obtain the background in economics and mathematics required to gain admission to a high-quality economics PhD program; or, (iii) Study economics as a complementary field to another area of expertise (law, political science, public health, statistics, energy, etc.).
Additional information about the program is available at the website https://ma.eco.utexas.edu.
Please let interested students know about this new program by forwarding this email. A flyer is also attached to this email if you would like to post the information.
The first application deadline is February 15, 2013, and classes start July 15, 2013. We are looking forward to welcoming our first cohort of Master’s students in summer 2013!
Please do not hesitate to contact us at ma-econ@austin.utexas.edu if you have any questions about the program.
