Business Economics (PhD)
The Business Economics PhD empowers scholars to apply rigorous economic analysis to the most pressing questions faced by firms and policy-makers. After mastering the core in economics, candidates build depth through field-specific coursework. They draw on the combined strengths of Questrom’s research community and BU’s Economics Department, gaining dual mentorship and peer networks from both. The program cultivates collaboration with faculty and prepares students to publish in top journals, positioning graduates for academic careers in both business schools and economics departments.
