Department Information

Department of Economics

The Department of Economics at The Ohio State University. The Departments 28 tenure track faculty members teach and conduct research in areas such as behavioral economics, macroeconomics, labor economics, econometrics, economic theory, monetary economics, industrial organization, and economic history. We have 10 associated faculty members, approximately 1000 undergraduate majors, and about 75 Ph.D. students.

Our faculty members regularly publish their research in top-ranked academic journals (see our faculty publication webpage), have served as presidents of academic associations, and have been elected as fellows of prestigious economic societies. This expertise translates into high quality instruction at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

The undergraduate program provides an introduction to economics for thousands of students from across the University each year. For many students, this is their first and only exposure to economics in the classroom, and we take seriously our responsibility to help students become economically literate.

Our undergraduate program provides economics majors with broad knowledge of important theoretical and empirical aspects of economics, in both BA and BS degree tracks. We encourage our majors to learn how to pose interesting economic questions and use their training to pursue answers on their own. Our undergraduate students go on to careers in government, law, education, and business, with many pursuing post-graduate degrees. For instance, a very recent student (class of 2023) is hired as a business analyst at McKinsey & Company; some recent students were admitted to top PhD programs such as Harvard, Berkeley, and Northwestern. The Departments undergraduate counselors assist students in selecting courses, finding internships, and choosing career paths. Our Economics Advisory Board members, usually alumni of our department, mentor our undergraduate majors and sponsor scholarships and prizes.
