A guaranteed return on investment
During the duration of the programme (3 years), you will study economics starting from basic principles. In year one you are introduced to economic concepts, theories, and models. In years two and three depth is added, with intermediate level and advanced courses on macroeconomics, microeconomics, public finance, and international monetary economics. Other courses put the concepts to the test. Marketing, management, corporate finance, business law, and strategic brand management are just some of the applied courses that will help you manage a firm, or (why not?) set up your own company.
