Economics

The two-year program

ACADEMIC YEAR 2012 / 2013

The graduate degree in Economics is designed for students who wish to gain a thorough theoretical and empirical knowledge of key economic principles. Students will be endowed with in-depth understanding of recent economic issues and are expected to develop a high level of autonomy with regard to research and methodology.

During the first year compulsory core courses will give the students sound economics and quantitative methods foundations. The second year aims to take the students closer to the research frontier. Students will tackle interesting problems in economics by applying the tools learned during the first year. The program offers a choice of courses from different fields of economics with the purpose of finding a promising research topic and developing a final research dissertation.

The program aims to bring together students as well as scholars from different nations, creating a stimulating international environment for research and study.

Career Prospects
The program provides adequate knowledge and research skills for those who wish to work in research positions in national and international businesses, private and public national and international institutions (e.g. ECB, World Bank, Bank of Italy, IMF, OECD, Goldman Sachs, Consulting companies, Think tanks, etc…) or to pursue a PhD in economics at the best Italian and international universities.
