Masters Programs

In the spring semester, master’s program courses will be conducted in virtual mode. All class materials will be available asynchronously to accommodate students in remote locations.

Certain in-person course elements will be introduced as soon as health conditions permit. We will continue to monitor pandemic and public health conditions to determine when this may be possible. Up-to-date information from the University on our Covid-19 status and response can be found here.

See the Registrar’s Schedule of Classes:  https://registrar.georgetown.edu/

All scheduled seminars will take place on-line.  The seminar schedule is available at  https://econ.georgetown.edu/seminars/
