The MA program provides a rigorous toolkit for thinking about the economy and about economic policy. The programs are designed to give students a solid background in both economic theory and the techniques used in empirical research. The students in the program acquire essential skills for a variety of jobs in public institutions, international organizations, non-governmental organizations, and private sector. Some of our graduates go on to academic careers. Students may specialize in fields such as Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Economic Development, Political Economy and Industrial Economics.
