Is technical analysis getting the recognition it deserves in university studies?

Quote from marketsurfer:

hey mark,

I have never seen TA taught at any accredited university. can you please post a link to such a course of study?

thanks,

It's been posted before a few times here at ET with a list of universities by students of the university.

Off the top of my head without using ET search menu to find those old discussions...

University of Texas in on the list and its taught as a specific class to undergrads and a graduate level class.

However, I don't know what aspect of Technical Analysis is taught.

After all, it is a fairly big field of study that can involve just about anything from math to subjective stuff.

P.S. May be easier to google it and find PhD students doing their papers on TA especially when the PhD student is teaching a undergrad class on the topic.

schools of higher education teach science, fact and testable subjects ( atleast they should) hence TA has no place in an academic setting other than for historical reference or in art class.

And WTF am I gonna do with all this damned long underwear in Fla??

LMAO. accredited universities, please. ones with dramatic misspellings on their websites need not apply.

Surf you gotta stop being such a dickhead. You are really out of your depth here, ... oh but wait, we're talking about surf here ... :p
 
marketsurfer,

Also, the list I saw posted here at ET included universities from California, Canada and in Asia besides University of Texas.

I once heard that the MTA (Market Technicians Association) has a list or someone maintains a list of which members are teaching Technical Analysis at universities.

You may want to call them and find out more info.

I believe that's how someone else here at ET came across the info.

http://mta.org

I guess any member with a PhD will most likely be the ones teaching TA on a university level.
