Is This True?

An Editorial in today's Hattiesburg American states

... "The Trent Lott National Center for Excellence in Economic Development and Entrepreneurship will put USM on the national map. Given the fact that it will eventually house USM's Department of Economic Development and Planning, which offers the only Master's degree in economic development or Ph.D. in international development in the world, the project is of pivotal importance."

I seem to remember someone on this board stating that several other universities have the MS in economic development and Ph.D. in international development. What is the truth?

The Center for Economic Development and Research at the University of North Texas was established in 1989 to conduct economic analysis and public policy research.  The Center also provides forecasting and strategic planning services to businesses, governments and non-profit agencies with an interest in economic development. Dr. Bernard L. Weinstein is director of the Center and Dr. Terry L. Clower is associate director. 


The Center works closely with UNT's Institute of Applied Economics, which offers master's degree programs in public policy and economic development.


Using the links to the left, you can learn more about the Center, the Institute of Applied Economics, UNT, and much more.  Brief biosketches of Dr. Weinstein and Dr. Clower are also available.

If you have other questions or need more information, please can contact us by mail at P. O. Box 310469, Denton, Texas  76203, by telephone at 940/565-4049, or by  e-mail

Isn't it ridiculous how some of these people just spout off at the mouth, claiming them as "facts".  Masters programs in Economic Development abound all over this nation.


Another example of Mississippi tunnel vision.
