MA/MS in Maîtrise en sciences économiques

This graduate program leads to a Master's degree in economic sciences from Universite de Montreal, delivered as day courses on the Montreal campus in French, full-time or part-time. The 45-credit program trains students to analyze economic conditions for governments, public enterprises, financial institutions, and industrial or commercial firms, combining three mandatory courses in microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics with four elective courses and a research workshop. Two pathways are offered: one emphasizing professional practice through coursework and a research report, and another combining coursework with thesis research. The program can be completed in as little as three full-time trimesters, up to a maximum of six. Admission requires a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution and two letters of recommendation, one of which may come from an employer; the program admits for the Fall trimester. It suits graduates seeking analytical training for roles as economists or economic analysts, or preparing for further graduate study.
