Welcome to MInes Economics & Business
Our mission is to produce graduates and scholarship of international distinction. We emphasize applied work devoted to industry decision making and public policy, especially as they relate to minerals and materials, energy, the environment, and technology. Taking advantage of the strong mathematical and quantitative skills of Mines students, our degree programs emphasize quantitative methods. As a multidisciplinary department, we focus on fields within economics and business taht complement one another - that is, microeconomics, the management sciences (including operations research), and finance.
We would be pleased to talk to you about our academic programs or research.
