Exchange Programmes
MS Applied Economics, University of Cincinnati
The MA (Applied Economics) programme offers an option to earn two Degrees for a few students– MA Applied Economics from CHRIST (Deemed to be University) and an MS in Applied Economics from the University of Cincinnati (UC), USA, through credit transfer facility. Upon successful completion of the programme, students will be awarded two degrees from two universities in two years with an international exposure of over four months in the USA. Since UC’s MS in Applied Economics is a ‘STEM’ degree, the students can work for up to three years without an H1-B visa through the facility of Optional Practical Training*.
In this student exchange, Semester 1, 2 and 3 would be taught as per CHRIST (Deemed to be University) syllabus and Semester 4 would be pursued at UC. The courses offered by UC are in two segments: in spring the courses are Time Series Econometrics, Game Theory, Competition and Regulation or Urban and Regional Economics (depending on faculty availability), Program Evaluation, Spatial Econometrics, Panel Data Econometrics and in summer a Masters Research Practicum. Classes for UC’s MS in Applied Economics are held at the Lindner College of Business in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
The selection for the dual degree programme is through a departmental internal selection process and would be open for those whose complete the academic requirements of the programme and have passed the GRE Exam. Applicants with a GRE score of 320 or above will qualify for a $8000 scholarship.

OPT is a paid internship facility provided for international students under student visa (work visa is not required).
