Study Details: 1 year - 2 years
The highly quantitative approach of this one-year MSc will equip you to understand and navigate the complexities of today’s fast-evolving global economy. You will gain intensive training in the theories, analytical tools and methods of micro and macroeconomics and econometrics. With expertise in critical analysis, problem-definition and tackling technical challenges, you’ll be ready for success in industry roles, or to excel in a PhD programme at a leading university.
A minimum of an upper second-class Bachelor's degree in Economics with a significant quantitative component from a UK university, or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. Applicants with a qualification of an equivalent standard in another quantitative discipline, such as statistics, mathematics, or physics, may also be considered. Please note that competition for places is strong so meeting the minimum entry requirements does not guarantee an offer of admission. Applicants whose studies for their undergraduate degree have been undertaken wholly or mainly at a university located outside the UK must upload to the application form their GRE General Test score report. The quantitative GRE score must be 162 or above (post-August 2011 scores). Applicants in the final year of their undergraduate studies must upload to their application a complete list of the courses they are taking in their final year.
