Postgraduate Diploma - Economics
About Postgraduate Diploma - Economics
Our programme offers a comprehensive grounding in microeconomics, macroeconomics and econometrics in the first months. This is followed by various elective modules, drawn from different fields of theoretical and applied economics. In total, students are required to take 12 taught modules. Students also take a mandatory Research Topics module which focuses on research methodologies and topics in the discipline of economics and helps to prepare students for writing a dissertation. The research-based dissertation allows students to showcase the knowledge they have gained by identifying and answering a research question.
Students are required to take a preliminary course in mathematics and statistics before the start of lectures. This is a refresher course of undergraduate techniques with some introduction of advanced concepts.
In addition to mandatory Econometrics modules, students on the International Development strand will have other required modules
