Master of Science (MSc) in Economics

About

The Master's programme in Economics provides students with knowledge of up-to-date economic methods and their application at a high theoretical level. The programme is targeted at students with an interest in obtaining advanced analytical and quantitative training. 120 ECTS points must be earned in total. In the first two semesters, students attend lectures and tutorials in mathematics, advanced microeconomics, advanced macroeconomics and advanced econometrics (30 ECTS). Building upon these basics, students select two specialisations (18 ECTS each) from the modules "Modelling", "International Economics", "Governance", "Health Economics", and "Business Administration", as well as one individual focus area (30 ECTS). For the individual focus area, students can also acquire credits through seminars, an internship, or language courses. Students write a Master's thesis (24 ECTS) in the fourth semester over six months, demonstrating their ability to produce independent scientific work in a specific area of economics.
