by Michael Stephens | October 17, 2017 The Levy Institute is accepting applications to the M.S. and M.A. in Economic Theory and Policy for Fall 2018. The new, one-year M.A.* joins the two-year M.S. in offering students an alternative to mainstream programs in economics and finance. Our graduate curriculum is rooted in the Institute’s distinctive research program, including macroeconomic theory and policy analysis, the development and exploration of alternative measures of economic well-being and poverty, and continuing efforts to extend the work of Distinguished Scholars Hyman Minsky and Wynne Godley. Students can specialize in one of the Institute’s five research areas: Macroeconomic Theory, Policy, and Modeling Employment
