Course description
The objective of this programme is to provide well-qualified graduates in economics and related disciplines with the training required to enter Ph.D. programmes in economics or to work as economists in government or private sector organisations. The programme focuses on the technical skills needed to undertake economics research and emphasises active and problem-based learning to ensure mastery of the basic skills.
The programme is normally taken on a full-time basis and is of ten months duration, with a month-long preliminary training course in mathematics and statistics. The M.Sc. concludes with the submission of a dissertation.
The course can also be taken part-time and students must also take the preliminary intensive mathematics and statistics training course prior to admission onto the M.Sc. programme. Once admitted the course is of two years duration, with coursework taken in both years and the dissertation undertaken between May and September of the second year.
