  • ECON 202 Microeconomic I*
  • ECON 203 Microeconomics II

*GSBGEN 675 Microeconomic Theory and MGTECON 600 are possible substitutes for this course.

(4) Statistics and Econometrics (1 course)

  • MGTECON 604 Econometric Methods II
  • ECON 271 Intermediate Econometrics II
  • STAT 305A Introduction to Statistical Modeling

Possible substitutes:

  • MGTECON 605 Econometric Methods III
  • ECON 272 Intermediate Econometrics III

Students with no background in statistics are encouraged to take one of the following two courses (in addition to the requirement above):

  • MGTECON 603 Econometric Methods I
  • ECON 270 Intermediate Econometrics I

Students are required to declare a reference discipline (Economics or Organizational Behavior and Theory) and take courses in that discipline.

Economics

Students using economics as a reference discipline will generally take the following courses:

  • Intermediate Microeconomic Analysis (47800 and 47801)
  • Math for Economists (47780)
  • Econometrics I (47811)

Organizational Behavior and Theory

Students using organizational behavior and theory as a reference discipline will generally take the following courses:

  • Organizational Behavior (47902) (semester course)
  • Research Methods (47908) (semester course)
  • Organizational Theory (47890/1) (semester course)

Qualifiers

By the end of the third semester, students must pass the qualifying exams in Business Technologies (see below), and a subset of the Economics qualifying exams focusing on either microeconomics and information economics theory, or microeconomics and econometrics.

Students with appropriate preparation prior to their entry to the program may choose to take the qualifying exams prior to the third semester, however, they must take the entire set of qualifiers as outlined below.

  • BT Diagnostic Exam: Tests students knowledge on IT management concepts and emerging technologies.
  • BT Technical Exam: Tests students knowledge on Databases and Systems Analysis and Design concepts.
  • BT Research Exam: Tests students abilities to analyze and critique a research problem or paper.
  • Reference Discipline Exam: Exams will depend on the reference discipline chosen by the student:

Economics

Students who take economics as a reference discipline are required to take the Microeconomics qualifier plus one of the following qualifiers:

  • Game Theory
  • Econometrics I and II

Organizational Behavior and Theory

Students who take organizational behavior as a reference discipline are required to take the OB Methods qualifier plus one of the following:
