The Economics master’s classes of 2024 and 2025 certainly stood tall in academic excellence. Despite their smaller numbers, the master’s programs continued to produce a steady stream of outstanding scholars, and many successful doctoral, pre-doctoral, and professional placements. These two years were also blessed by an exceptionally vibrant spirit of camaraderie and community. Master’s students have enjoyed an energetic program of extracurricular activities; and lasting personal friendships were formed that cut across all national and linguistic boundaries, educational and professional backgrounds, cultures and characters.
Three graduates of 2025 – David Klein, Rosa He, and Eric Zhang – have been awarded the Prizes for Academic Excellence and Outstanding Service in the Economics Master’s Program, to recognize and celebrate not only their individual attainments but also their contributions to the greater good of the master’s community.
