Graduate Program
IMPORTANT: Graduate Program Application Deadline Is Now JANUARY 15 FOR ALL STUDENTS.
The graduate program of the Department of Economics is designed for students from across the globe who wish to acquire theoretical and quantitative skills for use in careers in government, academia, research, or business. The Department provides one of the world’s leading programs specializing in the economies of the Asia-Pacific region. Graduate students receive an outstanding and challenging education in economic theory, econometrics, and public policy applications. Our program offers M.A. and Ph.D. degrees and admits students to both programs. The department has a close working relationship with the East-West Center, a federal research and educational institution that specializes in the Asia-Pacific region and is located on the University of Hawaii campus.
Our location in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, our proximity to the East-West Center, and our multicultural graduate student body provide us with a natural comparative advantage in studying the structure and public policies of Asia-Pacific economies. The online Graduate Economics Guide provides complete information about our programs, including application procedures; academic preparation necessary for admission; tuition, fees, and financial support; graduate courses offered by the department; the graduate student body; and funding opportunities.
