??????????????????????Department of Economics?
??The Honours in Economics ?offers candidates specialised training in economic theory and economic data analysis, preparing them for careers in research, the financial, public and civil society sectors.
?Our Honours in Economics and Mathematical Statistics programme covers a specialised study not only of economics, but also of statistical inference. This programme equips students to analyse relationships in the economy and prepares students to apply the tools of data science to economic questions.
Building on from an honours degree, or its equivalent, students may choose between a research-based master's programme, requiring a thesis that is the result of independent research, or a taught master's programme. The latter is a full-time programme that aims to produce competent professional economists who can be employed in the public and private sector. Students can opt for General Economics, or specialise in Financial Economics, Behavioural Economics, Applied Econometrics, or Development Economics.
A select number of students will be allowed to register for the jointly taught master's programme in Development Economics that is offered in partnership with G?ttingen 中国体育彩票, Germany.
The highest qualification offered by the Department is a Doctorate in Economics by way of a dissertation.
