About This Program

This is an interdisciplinary major offered by the Department of Economics with the Department of Computer Science. This joint major is intended for the student who seeks comprehensive training in economic analysis alongside computing and programming techniques. It is particularly well-suited for students who wish to better understand the digital economy and are interested in pursuing an academic or professional career at the intersection of these two disciplines. Students pursuing this joint major will follow the Theory track in Economics. Honors students are required to take twenty-three to twenty-four 4-credit courses (92-96 credits). A 3.65 overall GPA and a 3.65 average in both Economics and Computer Science courses are required. Honors students must follow the Theory concentration in Economics, participate in a year-long research program in their senior year, and write a thesis under faculty supervision. Interested students must consult with the directors of undergraduate studies in both departments for advisement and for permission to enter the honors program. New York University's Office of Undergraduate Admissions supports the application process for all undergraduate programs at NYU.
