  • The MA Economics course is designed to meet the growing demand for those students who seek a degree combining solid training in microeconomic and macroeconomic principles with quantitative methods and research-informed applied economics units
  • This course is different from the existing MSc Economics course at Manchester because of its focus on mainstream but less theoretical units that need to be completed
  • If students choose the MA Economics course, they will take compulsory course units in both microeconomics and macroeconomics; students will further advance their quantitative skills and techniques in the core units:
    • introduction to econometrics;
    • mathematics for economists;
    • further econometrics, and;
    • as part of the students’ dissertation, they will focus on applied and/or policy-oriented research of economic data as relevant to policymakers and economics professionals
