• The on-campus version of the Master of Professional Studies in Applied Economics program (MPEM) is a professional master's degree program designed primarilly to enhance the professional development of applied economists. The program is not designed to prepare students for PhD programs in economics. The program prepares students to work as analysts in government agencies, private firms and non-governmental organizations.
  • The MPEM program's curriculum is identical to that of the MPEC program, but the MPEC program is located off campus in Washington, DC and operates on a quarter-term academic calendar, rather than the traditional semester-based academic calendar.
