As one of three specialized Master's pathways, our Economics program combines mandatory and elective courses, culminating in a research-focused dissertation.

The econometrics component develops essential research methodologies for academic and professional applications.

Students enjoy curricular flexibility with diverse elective options spanning industrial economics, financial systems, environmental economics, and more. The capstone dissertation allows for intensive exploration of a relevant subject, with potential international research opportunities at partner institutions.
