Máster en Economía

The M.A. in Economics program was established in the mid-1960s but has recently made changes to ensure that the program is focused on training students to conduct applied economic research and decision analysis using current methodologies. There is an emphasis on hands-on data analysis, making it possible for graduates to acquire the skills and knowledge for careers as consultants in private business and analysts for the government. The dedicated graduate faculty at MTSU have prepared highly qualified master’s-level economists who have gone on to continue their doctoral studies not only at MTSU but at numerous universities, including Chicago, Virginia, North Carolina State, and Auburn. Others have found employment in local banking, the Federal government, and the State of Tennessee.

Jones College is well known—within and outside Tennessee—as a business college on the move, perfectly positioned to build its reputation and its impact on the region, the state, and beyond. Great business colleges are engines of innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic development, with tremendous intellectual and physical resources. Our key strengths are our dedicated faculty and staff, accreditation from AACSB International, and the sense of pride Jones College alumni have about the education they received.

In addition to making sure our curriculum is up-to-date, we provide enrichment and development opportunities outside the classroom that make our students attractive to potential employers. We develop faculty and staff so they will want to spend their careers at Jones College. We work with colleagues in other MTSU colleges to leverage strengths and develop innovative programs. We respond to the educational and service needs of the broader community. Internally and externally, we have a great story to tell about MTSU and Jones College. Thank you for visiting our website!
