The 2nd cycle degree programme in Economics and Economic Policy aims to train highly qualified professional economists who are able to cover positions of responsibility in a range of national and international appointments. The graduates' skills will allow them to work profitably in planning and organisation, the design and implementation of development plans, and to assess the strategic aspects of decision-making processes and their economic and financial implications.
The knowledge of economic phenomena and market laws, the ability to relate macro- and micro-economic phenomena to each other and to apply economic analysis tools to interpret economic categories are the core skills developed by these graduates.
The degree programme includes a core of basic course units which provide solid grounding in economics and advanced competencies in quantitative methods for economic forecasting and economic-financial analysis. It also includes specific course units aimed at developing specialist knowledge in the fields of industrial organisation, financial intermediation, economic and social policy.
