Our European MSc in Economics will provide you with training in advanced economics and its applications. Students will study at the University of Bradford and at one of our European partner universities.
By combining taught modules in the UK and at one of our leading European partner institutions drawn from across the EU (e.g. France, Italy, the Netherlands). You will gain important additional skills of studying and living in another European member state as well as access to a wide range of modules. This will give you a broader experience of economics and will provide an excellent foundation for a career in a European or international company or organisation.
Taught course content includes advanced micro and macroeconomics and econometrics, together with a range of applied economics modules from one of our partner institutions in the EU (tuition in English).
Following your taught modules you will complete a dissertation on a topic you have chosen in agreement with your supervisor within economics, either at Bradford or by distance learning.
Special Features
- In addition to developing your subject knowledge, the European MSc in Economics is designed to offer you a range of transferable skills, useful in a range of careers and situations beyond university. At the University of Bradford, we emphasise the applied aspects of study to understand the world around us, with a focus on the impact of economic forces and the role of policy in shaping change.
- A number of awards of up to £2,000 are being offered, on a competitive merit basis, to International students applying for any full-time MSc within the Division of Economics. Fee discounts may also be available to International students with a University of Bradford Bachelor's Honours degree (20% of the appropriate tuituin fee for First Class Honours, 10% for 2:1)
