What impact does Brexit have on the economy? How can we reduce CO2 emissions? What caused the 2008 financial crisis? Why is the independence of the European Central Bank important? The field of Economics addresses these and other similar questions. The aim of economic analysis is to explain how economies work and develop.
During the program, students attend classes on, for example: basic economic principles, microeconomics, macroeconomics, economic policy, public finance, mathematics, econometrics, and academic writing and research.
Students can choose one or more minor(s). They can combine Economics with Mathematics, Law, Business Administration, Business Informatics, Philosophy, Political Science, Sociology, and Psychology.
Students can also attend seminars to develop key competences, such as intercultural competencies, conflict management, presentation techniques, and time management.
