没有数学背景是不是申phd of acct硬伤？

macroeno

至少需要一年
calculus I II， III
statistics I （不用微积分的那种）
linear algebra 至少一学期
至少一门微观经济（不是一年级入门的那个，是经济系本科的那个）
最后再有本科的经济计量学

谢谢各位

看来我必须补数学 能不能指点应该读哪些课呢？

I asked my audit professor who earned her Acct Ph.D several years ago the same question, and she replied: " I do not think that taking math classes is necessary unless a PhD program requires a particular course that you have not taken. For instance, some PhD programs require you to take Calculus while you are getting your degree. For most research you do not use math skills."
Hope this is helpful.

At least, you need a decent grade of calculus, linear algebra, probability theory and statistics. In addition, it is suggested to take some econometrics classes. Also your economics background has to be strong. Otherwise, you would fail when you take classes together with Econ PhDs. Take your time. Background takes time to build up.


It also helps to take some PhD level classes directly.
