Courses I've TakenBelow is a list of resources I found useful for developing the mathematical intuition required for economic research. These are in addition to the required courses listed in the program descriptions above. MathCalculus
Linear Algebra
Analysis
Statistics
Other Useful OptionsThese are other courses that I haven't taken, but frequently appear on PhD program admissions pages. The Math Department at SU lists all course syllabi dating back to 2018 Math

Below is a list of resources I found useful for developing the mathematical intuition required for economic research
Additionally, I've taken the following courses at Syracuse University. Descriptions are taken from course syllabi
Calculus
rates, graphs, differentials, exponential and logarithmic functions, mean-value theorem, L’Hospital’s rule,
integration.
functions, method of integration, improper integrals, infinite series, elementary differential equations,
parametric equations, polar coordinates
multiple integrals, partial differentiation, physical applications, line and surface integrals of scalar functions and vector fields, Green’s, Stokes’, and divergence theorems
Linear Algebra
linear transformations, matrices and determinants, eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
arbitrary field, linear transformations, inner products
Analysis
Emphasis on developing proof-writing skills, including mathematical induction.
system is a complete ordered field, sequences, limits, Bolzano-Weierstrass, Cauchy sequences, limits of functions,
continuity, Extreme Value theorem, Intermediate Value theorem, nowhere continuous functions, uniform
continuity. Differentiability of functions of one real variable, Mean value theorem, generalized mean value
theorem, L’Hopital’s rule, Taylor’s theorem, Inverse function theorem.
