A PhD is the highest level of education that one may receive in a given area of study. Typically, in order to graduate from the program, individuals must assert their experience via a thesis based on original research.

What is a PhD in Economic Studies? PhD programs with an economic focus often consist of courses that offer a broad range of both domestic and international problems and the skills participants need to deal with or mitigate those problems for a peaceable resolution. During their course of study, individuals may gain an in-depth understanding of finances as they apply to today’s economy and obtain a solid base for conducting research in the field. Ultimately, the program aims to deliver graduates who are able to analyze economic trends and conduct the research necessary to come up with answers, or solutions, to worldwide issues.

Graduates of this program tend to be very research-oriented, with a strong ability to consult with global leaders about politics and finances. The latter hinges on graduates’ diplomacy skills, which they tend to develop as well. Each of these traits may prove to be helpful in an individual’s personal and professional lives.

The cost of a PhD varies greatly and can depend on a number of factors. The location of a school and the duration of a chosen program are just two factors that may affect the overall cost of tuition.

Graduates of this program often go on to become professors, researchers or both with academic institutions, though possible positions aren’t limited to academia. Individuals who complete this program may find many exciting career opportunities available to them, with job titles that may include chartered accountant, actuarial analyst, investment analyst, stockbroker, statistician, economist, financial risk analyst, data scientist, management consultant and diplomatic service officer.  

Many schools offer PhD programs in economic studies, but where a student ultimately ends up depends on his or location and schedule. Online programs offer the most flexibility, which tends to be ideal for PhD students.
