Master of Science in Economics

The online Master of Science in Economics at Colorado Christian University will equip you with the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary to lead in a global environment, whether working in business, government, or the nonprofit sector. As an online Economics graduate student, you will learn how to apply economic theories and concepts to analyze and solve problems related to the distribution of resources, trade, and economic development in the domestic and international arenas. The international focus of the program goes beyond the core international trade and finance courses to also include international political economy and economic development. You will gain a deeper understanding of how to address the issues of wealth and poverty in our world.

The program's focus on economic development reflects the biblical worldview needed to care for the least advantaged, helping you to prepare as a leader to apply your knowledge of economics with a Christian perspective.

CCU's Economics master's program is ideal if you aspire to work in the field of economics. A master’s degree is the typical entry-level education for an economist. There is a need for economists in business, healthcare administration, government (local, state, and national), research, nonprofit/NGOs, and environmental management. This program also prepares students should they wish to continue for their doctorate in economics, particularly development economics.
