CMU’s Economics PhD unites rigorous microfoundations with frontier data methods. Students model strategic AI competition, quantify climate-risk pricing in bond markets, and run large-scale RCTs via online platforms. Interdisciplinary electives in computer science, public policy, and behavioral science position graduates for academia, central banks, and tech-economics leadership roles.
