MSc Development Economics and Policy provides training in contemporary economic theory, applied economics and quantitative methods relevant to developing and transitional economies.
Run jointly by the Global Development Institute and the School of Social Sciences, it is especially appropriate if you’re seeking to practice as a development economist in government, the private sector, a multilateral organisation or an NGO.
The theory course units provide a thorough training in both contemporary macro and micro development theory. Applied and optional course units offer you an opportunity to understand development problems and policy prescriptions within both global and national economic contexts.
The quantitative course units enable you to test theories through the use of data sets and provide training in standard econometrics techniques and up-to-date econometrics software packages.
You should have a good bachelor’s degree (minimum Upper Second (2:1) or international equivalent) in Economics or a related subject, with 60% or above in macroeconomics, microeconomics, and statistics, or its international equivalent.
