Successfully
transforming
research
ideas
to
new
productive
processes
and
products
requires
knowledge
not
only
of
scientific
principles
but
also
of
key
economic
concepts.
As
well
as
requiring
familiarity
with
science
policy,
it
necessitates
forecasting
the
demand
for
new
products
or
processes,
assessing
the
market
for
new
technologies,
performing
cost-benefit
analyses
of
new
projects
and
finding
the
financing
for
them.
This
program
is
designed
to
give

dual
capability
as
scientists
and
economists
and
prepare
them
for
careers
as
economic
forecasters,
business
economists,
government
economists,
scientific
research
managers,
or
regulatory
analysts.
