Hello, I am math and statistics major and I was considering applying to a couple economics PhD programs in addition to statistics ones. Does anyone have more insight about the difference in job opportunities for the two fields? I know it is likely to overlap a little.
I have barely taken any economics courses but I assume my math and stats coursework is helpful
Econometrics
Mathematical Statistics 1,2,grad
Calc 1-3, diff eq, lin alg
Regression
I have 2 more semesters before I apply to anything, what sort of classes are economics phd programs looking for?
