Economics

Develop the key competencies in theoretical, applied and empirical economics that are required by many employers of economists. You will cover core modules in microeconomics, macroeconomics and econometrics, and have the chance to take modules in specialist areas including health economics and behavioural economics.

The dissertation track is also a good pathway to an Economics PhD if you want to pursue further study.

This Master's in Economics course is ideal if you want to thoroughly immerse yourself in modern economics training, either straight after an undergraduate degree or as a mid-career professional. You have the flexibility to study full time over one year or part time over two years.
