About Master of Science - Economics
Individuals can explore the deeper meanings of international economics, finance and business and learn to compare theories with this Master’s in Economics. This flexible degree course combines training in theory and method with exposure to economic and financial data. Students will gain a sound knowledge of economics, creative problem-solving skills, and the ability to look deeper into economic policy implications.
The department's academics focus on real-world issues and draw from a wide range of theory, resulting in an interdisciplinary approach with global benefits. Students can start with Greenwich's standard Economics programme and later opt for one of the specialist pathways in International Economics or Business and Financial Economics.
In a typical week, learning takes place through a combination of lectures and seminars. Students will be able to discuss and develop their understanding of topics covered in lectures in smaller group sessions. Outside of timetabled sessions, they'll need to dedicate time to self-study to prepare for coursework, presentations and exams. Greenwich's Stockwell Street library and online resources will support further reading and research. Learners can also join a range of student societies, including the Rethinking Economics Greenwich Society, Economics and Business Society and Trading and Investment Banking Society.
Students will be part of a continuing guest lecture series where leading academic and professional economists share their insights and experience. The University hosts conferences of academic associations, such as The Meta-Analysis of Economics Research Network; Post-Keynesian Economics Society; and the Association of Heterodox Economics and Rethinking Economics. Besides, it hosts the internationally renowned research institute, namely the Institute of Political Economy Governance Finance and Accountability.
Graduates will be well-placed for business and public sector roles, notably in the finance industry where analytical skills and decision-making skills are vital, or for PhD programmes and academic careers. Other areas of employment include national and international business organizations; central banks, central and local government departments; policy-making institutions, seeking economists with a sound applied economics background; civil society organizations, NGOs with interest in economic policy and business issues; Research institutes and think-tanks; and economics and business media.
