What you will study

The program is therefore aimed both at those who are interested in a career in business and those who wish to embark on an academic career. In the introductory phase, advanced knowledge in macro- and microeconomics as well as in econometrics is imparted. Our students are thus perfectly prepared to deal with theoretical and empirical work in economics and related fields in an independent, systematic and well-founded manner. In addition, necessary theories and methods for the further course of studies are imparted.

Career pathways

Economists may be employed wherever an understanding of economic issues is required. Depending on their specialization, they can work, for example, in ministries and international organizations, in politics, or in the banking and insurance sectors.
