    Summer courses Programs in Economic Development

    These classes are part of summer break at most schools and universities. Students are invited to take condensed courses to further their academic career, review problem subjects, engage in professional development or explore new interests.

    What is a summer course in economic development? Most economics courses depend heavily on mathematical analysis and reasoning. Students might encounter prerequisites in calculus or statistics. Economic development classes in particular are concerned with discussing the methods by which growing economies might be analyzed. From this quantitative reasoning basis, the conversation often proceeds to determining the most ideal or efficient path of growth of a given system within various theoretical frameworks. Students might expect to perform comparative case studies, consult historical texts, pose hypothetical situations and test various methods of analysis.

    Knowledge of economies and cultures other than one's own might foster a unique global perspective. Refined analytical skills and increased discipline might help students in a variety of future endeavors.

    Education is often a significant investment, but costs vary from one school to another. Examine the course listings and promotional materials carefully, and contact the school if tuition information is not readily available.

    Economists focusing in economic development might find that their studies take them into an academic career. This might involve graduate studies, research positions or faculty positions. All three of these occupations typically require a high level of organization and personal motivation, the ability to complete grant applications and consistent research, writing and publication of original documents. One might also find a position at a government or international institution as an analyst. These professionals typically work in teams to solve data problems, apply mathematical analysis to business data and advise executive decisions on strategy and policy.
