Economic Analysis

Coursework

The Economic Analysis program is designed for students with a strong background in economics or mathematics, or professionals requiring high-level training in economic theory and applications. It is also suitable for students seeking a stepping stone towards a PhD in economics. These programs teach the skills to analyse real-world matters, from public policy to financial markets and the drivers of economic development.

The Master of Economic Analysis includes core and elective study alongside a two-semester research dissertation. With innovative instruction in cutting-edge economic theory and applications, it is a challenging graduate program in economics for highly-focused students. You will learn methods of economic modelling and the art and science of working with data using sophisticated tools, and use these tools to produce independent research.
