Overview

Mathematics and statistics are key tools in many aspects of economics. The joint major in Economics & Mathematics aims to provide foundational skills in both subjects while focusing course selection on both subjects’ common goals. The major is appropriate for economics students with interest in the mathematical techniques and for mathematics students interested in applications in economics. The major provides credentials in both subjects, leaving room for elective credits for students with other interests.

Requirements

This BA/MA program in Economics and Mathematics with Economics from Boston University is identical to that of the BA/MA in Economics, except that the candidate must satisfy:
