Courses in Economics

Economics studies how individuals, companies and institutions produce, exchange and distribute resources, and is an indispensable key to understanding inflation, growth, employment, markets and public policy. Master's programmes in Economics offer graduates advanced specialisation, with strong analytical content, to take on roles that require quantitative rigour and the ability to interpret complex scenarios.

The programmes include advanced microeconomics and macroeconomics, econometrics, development economics, international economics, labour economics, public economics, industrial economics, environmental and energy economics, behavioural economics, public policy analysis and data analysis applied to economics. Lessons combine theory, quantitative models, laboratories with statistical software and seminars with economists from institutions and think tanks.

A master's in Economics lets you develop skills in using data and models to analyse economic phenomena, evaluating policies and projects, forecasting scenarios and communicating results to decision-makers and the public. You learn to distinguish correlation from causation, use econometric methods and connect theory and reality, abilities highly valued in research and consulting settings.

Career opportunities include economist, economic analyst, researcher, economic policy consultant, market analyst, public policy evaluator, data analyst, official in national, European and international institutions, and analyst in think tanks and banks. Opportunities exist in central banks, research institutes, international organisations, consulting firms, banks and companies.

Many master's programmes are a bridge towards doctoral programmes and careers in institutions, and prepare you to compete in international selection processes.

Many programmes offer internships at institutions and think tanks, an opportunity to test your skills and build professional contacts.

The path is suitable for graduates in economics, statistics, mathematics, engineering and political science with a good quantitative background and an interest in analysing economic phenomena.
