The department is one of the most premier institutions for the study of economics. It offers undergraduate A.B. degrees as well as graduate Ph.D. degrees. According to the 2018 U.S. News & World Report, the department ranks as No. 1 in the field of economics.[3] The department is located in the Julis Romo Rabinowitz Building & Louis A. Simpson International Building, formerly 20 Washington Road, which also houses the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies, the Bendheim Center for Finance, the Center for Health and Wellbeing, and the Julis-Rabinowitz Center for Public Policy and Finance.[4] It is also home to the Pliny Fisk Library of Economics and Finance and the Industrial Relations Library. HistorySince the university's founding in 1746, many courses in the social sciences, including history and politics, were taught in the department of Jurisprudence and Political Economy. Coursework specifically in political economy became available in 1819. When Woodrow Wilson became a professor in 1890, additional courses were added to the curriculum, including the History of Political Economy. By 1913, the department became independent from history and politics, forming the Department of Economics and Social Institutions.[5] AcademicsThe undergraduate program is one of the most prestigious programs for the study of economics in the country and in the world. Economics is the most popular concentration (major) at the undergraduate level.[6] Because the university does not have a business school, the economics concentration attracts many students who are interested in careers in investment banking, management consulting, finance, technology, and more.[7] The curriculum itself is theoretical in nature, requiring students complete quantitative courses up to multivariate calculus.[8] In partnership with the Bendheim Center for Finance, the department also offers an Undergraduate Finance Certificate.[9] The graduate program in economics trains Ph.D. students for careers in academia, government, and industry. It receives approximately 800 applications for a class of 20 to 25 students who come from over 30 different countries around the world.[10] The program has numerous fields of specialization and has been particularly strong in the areas of Macroeconomics, Industrial Relations, and International Finance.[11][12] Graduate students who pursue academic careers have historically had placement records at some of the world's leading universities including Harvard, Yale, MIT, and Cornell.[13] The department also oversees a number of centers and initiatives, including:[14] {{Infobox person|name = Dial Lodge |image = Dial Lodge Princeton.JPG |image_size = 260px |caption = Home to the Bendheim Center for Finance in Princeton, NJ }}
