Course description

This degree programme is designed for those passionate about global economic issues and eager to understand international economic policies, relations, and the international currency system. The Master’s degree programme in International Economics delves deeply into international macroeconomic challenges, such as global and regional imbalances, macroeconomic instability, inequality, and the ecological constraints of economic activities. Students will gain skills in independent academic work and intercultural communication. Economic globalization demands specialists who can think beyond borders and view the economy in a global context. This consecutive degree programme fosters a critical understanding of current economic debates, including various heterodox approaches, and aims to adopt a pluralist perspective. The Master’s degree programme emphasizes understanding international economic contexts, incorporating theoretical controversies, historical developments, and current trends. By adopting an interdisciplinary perspective, it highlights the importance of social and political institutions in economic development.
