MSc Economics
This flexible MSc Economics combines training in theory and method with exposure to economic and financial data. You will gain a sound knowledge of economics, creative problem-solving skills, and the ability to look deeper into economic policy implications. Our academics focus on real-world issues and draw from a wide range of theory, resulting in an interdisciplinary approach with global benefits. You can study towards our standard Master of Economics or follow one of our specialist pathways - in International Economics or Business and Financial Economics. Graduates will be well-placed for business and public sector roles, notably in the finance industry where analytical skills and decision-making skills are vital, or for PhD programmes and academic careers.
You can expect to find employment in:
- National and international business organisations
- National and international institutions, including central banks, central and local government departments
- Financial market institutions and organisations including banks
- Policy-making institutions, seeking economists with a sound applied economics background
- Civil society organisations, NGOs with interest in economic policy and business issues
