Alumni Testimonials
The MA program in economics was an ideal follow up to my BA at AUC. I was taught by the best professors, and it resulted in me publishing my MA dissertation in one of the best journals in my field, Econometric Theory. The MA more than qualified me for my doctoral studies at Oxford, where I felt I knew more advanced material than most of my cohort.”

I have become an economist, not because of the exams I have passed and the books I have read, but rather through the capable professorship and sincere mentorship received through AUC’s economics program. The diverse backgrounds, rich experiences and dynamic interests of my professors helped shape my academic and professional ambitions, and I continue to sharpen my research and analytical skills through the department’s MA program.”
