Which schools offer a Math/Econ joint major?!?!?!

<p>Which schools offer a undergrad degree in math/econ or mathematical economics?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>UCLA is a school with a specific mathematical economics major.</p>

<p>However, at many schools, you can major in economics with additional math electives, or major in math with additional economics electives, to get the intended content (presumably, you are looking at PhD study in economics).</p>

<p>A number of schools’ regular economics majors or courses are math-heavy, or have math-heavy options, without explicitly being called mathematical economics. Examples include MIT, Chicago, and Stanford, where the intermediate economics courses are more math-heavy than at most schools. Harvard and Berkeley offer math-heavy options in their intermediate economics and econometrics courses, plus additional mathematical economics electives.</p>

<p>You can check how well integrated math is in the economics courses by looking at the course catalogs to see what the math prerequisites for intermediate economics and econometrics courses are, and whether elective mathematical economics courses are offered.</p>

<p>Reed does, but this is just because it would be a huge burden to write two theses. You can create a math-econ interdisciplinary major at almost all liberal arts colleges.</p>

<p>Brown has</p>

<p>Applied Math - Economics</p>

<p>The Applied Mathematics-Economics concentration is designed to reflect the mathematical and statistical nature of modern economic theory and empirical research. This concentration has two tracks. The first is the advanced economics track, which is intended to prepare students for graduate study in economics. The second is the mathematical finance track, which is intended to prepare students for graduate study in finance, or for careers in finance or financial engineering. </p>

<p>Mathematics - Economics</p>

<p>The Mathematical Economics concentration is designed to give a background in economic theory plus the mathematical tools needed to analyze and develop additional theoretical constructions. The emphasis is on the abstract theory itself.</p>

<p>As well as Economics, Computer Science - Economcs</p>

<p>Just off the top of my head: Penn, Reed and Brown.</p>

<p>Most schools require a full double major.</p>

<p>Google is your friend.

This is not an exhaustive list. </p>

<p>You could always major in Econ and minor in math. </p>

<p>Or double major in math and economics. Or major in math and minor in economics. You seriously do not need to limit your college list in this way.</p>

<p>Carnegie Mellon offers a BS in Economics and Mathematical Sciences. </p>
