Business Economics
A joint degree offered by the Department of Economics in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and the Harvard Business School, the PhD in business economics combines economic analysiswith the practical aspects of business. This degree is primarily intended to prepare students for careers in research and teaching in business administration and related fields of economics. Thegeneral management approach of the Harvard Business School is an important ingredient in the program.
The program can be distinguished from the Harvard PhD in economics by its greater emphasis onbusiness fields and its focus on the use of economic analysis and statistical methods in dealing effectively with management problems in these applied business fields.
Admission
Successful candidateshave strong records of academic performance in rigorous programs and exemplary GRE General Test or GMAT scores, especially in the quantitative area. Please note that, when possible, the GMAT ispreferred. They are not required to hold a degree in economics, though prior coursework is strongly recommended. Furthermore, they generally have an effective working knowledge of college-level calculus andlinear algebra.
Adequate command of spoken and written English is required for admission. Non-native English speakers must take the TOEFL, unless they have obtained the equivalent of a US bachelordegree from an institution at which English is the language of instruction. The committee prefers scores of at least 100 on the Internet based test (IBT) of the TOEFL.
