The Global Development Economics (GDE) program is designed for those seeking rigorous training in economics supplemented by training in the related disciplines of politics, international relations, public health, and environmental issues. The GDE provides an intensive three-semester program combining a strong foundation in economics with development policy training. In addition to the economics core, the GDE includes a set of economics elective courses which focus on various aspects of development issues and the global economy. Candidates for the GDE also join students from the GDP program in taking courses in Governance and Political Economy, Environment and Development, International Public Health, and a capstone seminar.
