Welcome

The Department of Economics at Ryerson University offers a number of graduate and undergraduate programs. Our programs offer small class sizes and give students extensive opportunities for one-to-one interactions between students, professors and program directors. Around 5 PhD in Economics students and 35 MA in International Economics and Finance students are admitted each year. Undergraduate students can major in International Economics and Finance (Bachelor of Arts) or Economics and Management Science (Bachelor of Commerce in Business Management). Approximately 130 students are admitted to both majors each year. The teaching and research of our faculty members cover applied data analysis, economic and financial theory and econometric methodology.
