Welcome to the School of Economics

Welcome. Formed in 2007 through the merger of the longstanding Departments of Economics and Resource Economics and Policy, the School of Economics serves as the hub of economics research and teaching at the University of Maine.

We encourage you to explore our web site to learn more about our academic programs, research programs, faculty and staff, and students.

SOE is excited to have several faculty participating in the new Sustainability Solutions Initiative (SSI) funded by a 5-year, $20 million NSF EPSCoR grant. Stay tuned for more details about the four new hires supported by this grant.  For more details about the project, visit the project website at:  http://www.umaine.edu/sustainabilitysolutions/
