After completing advanced-level courses in the core areas of economics (microeconomics, macroeconomics and econometrics), students can self-select into elective courses in major economic policy areas (e.g., public finance, labour economics, monetary economics, international economics, competition policy), in theoretical fields (e.g., behavioural economics, game theory, contract theory), in research methods (e.g., microeconometrics, computational economics, experimental economics), or in economic journalism. Students are encouraged to spend an exchange semester at one of the partner universities abroad and courses taken there are accredited.
The programme offers the opportunity to pursue a dual degree which integrates two semesters at the faculty of economics and business administration at the University of Ghent, Belgium and at the University of Verona, Italy. Students successfully completing this dual degree programme will receive the Master’s degree in International Economic Policy from from both universities. Prospective students are expected to display a strong interest in acquiring the academic skills necessary to address economic policy questions and to pursue scientific work. In this regard, a solid knowledge in mathematics and statistics is an essential prerequisite.
