Courses 2011-12
The program is structured in three terms. The first term endows students with the necessary general background through four compulsory courses. During the second and third terms, the course work focuses much more specifically on tools that are relevant for the study of macro policy and financial markets. Students will be required to undertake an applied project that will be an integral part of the curriculum. A supervisor will be assigned to every student. During the third term, this master will also offer seminars that will be led by international academics and practioners.
The end of the third term will be marked by a closing conference meant to be an interaction forum between the academic and the professional world. The presentation and discussion of students’ applied work will be combined with practioners talks and with the presentation of important academic research.
In September, students are required to take the
Mathematics and Statistics review courses. They will help students to brush up on quantitative skills relevant to economics.
