A doctoral degree requires the satisfactory completion of an approved program of advanced study and original research of high quality..
Please note that the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Doctor of Science (ScD) degrees are awarded interchangeably by all departments in the School of Engineering and the School of Science, except in the fields of biology, cognitive science, neuroscience, medical engineering, and medical physics. This means that, excepting the departments outlined above, the coursework and expectations to earn a Doctor of Philosophy and for a Doctor of Science degree from these schools are generally the same. Doctoral students may choose which degree they wish to complete.
Applicants interested in graduate education should apply to the department or graduate program conducting research in the area of interest. Some departments require a doctoral candidate to take a “minor” program outside of the student’s principal field of study; if you wish to apply to one of these departments, please consider additional fields you may like to pursue.
Below is a list of programs and departments that offer doctoral-level degrees.

Economics is a broad field that aims to understand why the world works as it does and how government and other interventions might affect well-being. The field is diverse methodologically, encompassing mathematical modeling, data science, and randomized trials as appropriate. It interacts both with other social sciences, as with political science and psychology in the attempt to better understand government and individual behavior, and with the sciences, as with statistics and computer science in developing data analysis techniques.
Economics studies decision-making at the individual level and the aggregate outcomes that result when individuals, firms, institutions and governments interact. It remains concerned with classic topics, such as the causes of business cycles, the effects of industry regulations, and the consequences of tax policies, but also focuses on the diverse social challenges of the developed and developing world: poverty, education, health, the environment, and inequality.
The Department of Economics offers subjects at multiple levels in the three core areas of the discipline—microeconomic theory, macroeconomics, and econometrics—and specialized subjects in many applied fields, including development economics, environmental economics, health economics, industrial organization, international trade, labor economics, political economy, and public finance.
The department offers several undergraduate programs that prepare students for careers in business, finance, consulting, law and public policy, and for further study. Its doctoral program is frequently ranked as the best in the world.
Bachelor of science in mathematical economics (course 14-2), bachelor of science in computer science, economics, and data science (course 6-14), minor in economics, undergraduate study.
Course 14-1, leading to the Bachelor of Science in Economics , provides students with a breadth and depth of training in economics that is unusual at the undergraduate level. It combines training in technical economics with in-depth exploration of students’ areas of interest. Students choose from a diverse set of upper-level undergraduate subjects and are encouraged to engage in independent research.
The aims of the SB in Economics degree program are threefold: to give students a firm grounding in economic theory and data analysis, to develop in-depth knowledge of particular economic issues, and to develop students’ capabilities for independent research. These aims correspond roughly to the requirements in the Course 14-1 program of theory, statistics and econometrics, electives, and research.
The requirements allow substantial freedom for students in designing individual programs within economics and in balancing the program with subjects in other disciplines. The ample elective slots let students apply their technical skills to develop a deep understanding of whatever interests them, whether that is poverty in developing countries, international trade, game theory, for example. The department recommends that students interested in graduate work in economics build their technical skills with additional subjects in mathematics and computer science. Students can also complement their studies in the major with subjects in political science, history, and other social sciences.
The major is sufficiently flexible that students can transfer into the major or add it as a second major without having taken courses beyond 14.01 Principles of Microeconomics and 14.02 Principles of Macroeconomics in the first two years. Students typically complete an intermediate micro subject, 14.05 Intermediate Macroeconomics , 14.30 Introduction to Statistical Methods in Economics , and 14.32 Econometric Data Science by the third year. This satisfies the prerequisites for all subjects (including 14.33 Research and Communication in Economics: Topics, Methods, and Implementation ) and prepares students for research on their thesis and in other elective subjects.
The SB in Mathematical Economics is designed for students who desire a deeper mathematical foundation and allows them to concentrate in a subset of economics topics. This program is well suited to students interested in mathematical microeconomic theory or econometrics. Students will gain the strong mathematical and theoretical preparation needed for subsequent graduate study in economics.
Students majoring in Mathematical Economics start with the same introductory micro and macro courses as 14-1 majors. They go on to take a program that includes rigorous mathematical training in microeconomic theory and econometrics, and substantial coursework in mathematics, including 18.100x Real Analysis, a choice between 18.06 Linear Algebra or 18.03 Differential Equations , and at least one mathematics seminar.
The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and the Department of Economics offer a joint curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Economics and Data Science (Course 6-14) . The interdisciplinary major provides students a portfolio of skills in economics, computing, and data science that are increasingly valued in both the business world and academia. The economics and computer science disciplines have a substantial overlap both in their reliance on game theory and mathematical modeling techniques and their use of data analytics. The economics side of the program includes subjects in microeconomic theory and econometrics and electives that expose students to how economists in various fields use mathematical models and statistical evidence to think about problems. The computer science side includes a number of subjects that develop complementary knowledge, including the study of algorithms, optimization, and machine learning (which is increasingly integrated with econometrics). The program also includes coursework in several mathematical subjects, including linear algebra, probability, discrete mathematics, and statistics, which can be taken in various departments.
The Course 6-14 major is also well suited to students whose primary interest is in game theory and mathematical modeling. It can prepare students for graduate study in either discipline.
The objective of the minor is to extend the understanding of economic issues beyond the level of the concentration. This is done through specialized analytical subjects and elective subjects that provide an extensive treatment of economic issues in particular areas.
The Minor in Economics consists of six subjects arranged into three levels of study:
Tier I | ||
Principles of Microeconomics | 12 | |
Principles of Macroeconomics | 12 | |
Introduction to Statistical Methods in Economics | 12 | |
or | Introduction to Probability and Statistics | |
Tier II | ||
Select one of the following: | 12 | |
Microeconomic Theory and Public Policy | ||
Intermediate Microeconomic Theory | ||
Intermediate Macroeconomics | ||
Tier III | ||
Select two elective subjects in applied economics. | 24 | |
Total Units | 72 |
and/or in order to take a higher-level subject must take a replacement subject for each subject that is skipped. | |

Admission requirements for graduate study.
The Department of Economics specifies the following prerequisites for graduate study in economics: one full year of college mathematics and an appreciable number of professional subjects in economics for those qualified students who have majored in fields other than economics. Applicants for admission who have deficiencies in entrance requirements should consult with the department about programs to remedy such deficits.
In unusual circumstances, admission may be granted to current MIT students seeking the Master of Science degree. The general requirements for the SM are given in the section on Graduate Education.
The Master of Applied Science in Data, Economics, and Design of Policy is an intensive program consisting of a series of nine subjects plus a capstone experience (a summer internship and a corresponding project report). Students gain a strong foundation in microeconomics, development economics, probability, and statistics; engage with cutting-edge research; and develop practical skills in data analysis and the evaluation of social programs. Student choose between two tracks: International Development (focused on low- and middle-income contexts) and Public Policy (focused on high-income contexts).

The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and the Department of Economics offer a joint curriculum leading to a Master of Engineering in Computer Science, Economics, and Data Science . Computer science and data science provide tools for problem solving, and economics applies those tools to domains where there is rapidly growing intellectual, scholarly, and commercial interest, such as online markets, crowdsourcing platforms, spectrum auctions, financial platforms, crypto currencies, and large-scale matching/allocation systems such as kidney donation and public school choice systems. This joint program prepares students for jobs in economics, management consulting, and finance. Students in the program are full members of both departments, with a single advisor chosen from EECS or Economics based on interests of the student as well as the advisor's interest and expertise in the 6-14 area.
The Master's of Engineering in Computer Science, Economics, and Data Science (Course 6-14P) builds on the foundation provided by the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Economics, and Data Science (Course 6-14) to provide both advanced classwork and master's-level thesis work. The student selects (with departmental review and approval) 42 units of advanced graduate subjects, which include two subjects in economics and two subjects in electrical engineering and computer science. A further 24 units of electives are chosen from a restricted departmental list of math electives.
The Master of Engineering degree also requires 24 units of thesis credit. While a student may register for more than this number of thesis units, only 24 units count toward the degree requirement.
Programs leading to the five-year Master of Engineering degree or to the four-year Bachelor of Science degree can be arranged to be identical through the junior year. At the end of the junior year, students with a strong academic record will be offered the opportunity to continue through the five-year master's program. A student in the Master of Engineering program must be registered as a graduate student for at least one regular (non-summer) term. To remain in the program and to receive the Master of Engineering degree, students will be expected to maintain a strong academic record. Admission to the Master of Engineering program is open only to undergraduate students who have completed their junior year in the Course 6-14 Bachelor of Science program.
The fifth year of study toward the Master of Engineering degree can be supported by a combination of personal funds, a fellowship, or a graduate assistantship. Assistantships require participation in research or teaching in the department or in one of the associated laboratories. Full-time assistants may register for no more than two scheduled classroom or laboratory subjects during the term, but may receive academic credit for their participation in the teaching or research program. Support through an assistantship may extend the period required to complete the Master of Engineering program by an additional term or two. Support is granted competitively to graduate students and will not be available for all of those admitted to the Master of Engineering program. If provided, department support for Master of Engineering candidates is normally limited to the first three terms as a graduate student unless the Master of Engineering thesis has been completed, the student has served as a teaching assistant, or the student has been admitted to the doctoral program, in which cases a fourth term of support may be permitted.
For additional information regarding teaching and research programs, contact the EECS Undergraduate Office, Room 38-476, 617-253-4654, or visit the department's website .
The Department of Economics offers a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Economics . Students in the doctoral program complete a course of study involving a series of required core subjects in microeconomic theory, macroeconomics, and econometrics; coursework (with a grade of B or better) in two major and two minor fields of study from among those offered by the department; a research paper; and a thesis. The coursework and research paper, completed in the program's first two years, culminate in a general examination. The four fields of study are chosen from advanced economic theory; computation and statistics (minor field only); econometrics; economic development; finance; industrial organization; international economics; labor economics; monetary economics; organizational economics; political economy; and public economics.
Following successful completion of the general examination requirement, the student forms a thesis committee of two or three faculty members. The thesis must meet high professional standards and make a significant original contribution to the student’s chosen research area. The thesis must be approved by the thesis committee and then by an independent faculty member in the department selected by the chair of the Graduate Committee. Upon successful completion of the program, students are awarded the PhD in economics.
There is no required minimum number of graduate subjects in the department. Students must be in residence for a minimum of two years. However, candidates ordinarily need two full academic years of study to complete the core and field of study requirements, and the doctoral thesis typically requires three to four years of additional research effort.
Economics and statistics.
The Interdisciplinary Doctoral Program in Statistics provides training in statistics, including classical statistics and probability as well as computation and data analysis, to students who wish to integrate these valuable skills into their primary academic program. The program is administered jointly by the departments of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Economics, Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, and Political Science, and the Statistics and Data Science Center within the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society. It is open to current doctoral students in participating departments. For more information, including department-specific requirements, see the full program description under Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs.
Many doctoral students are supported by scholarship and fellowship grants, as well as by teaching and research assistantships.
