Postgraduate training in economics is a vital step in equipping students for a wide variety of careers in finance, government, economic consultancies and industry, as well as for an academic career.
All professional economists need advanced training in core theory, quantitative/econometric methods and research methods; we offer this in a structure which enables you to combine it with more specialist options in financial economics, international finance, economic development and econometrics.
We have international expertise in the following areas:
* accounting and finance,
* operational research,
* international business strategy,
* tourism management,
* organisational behaviour,
* human resource management and industrial relations,
* food marketing and supply chain management
* agri-environmental economics.
MA, MPhil and PhD degrees are available in most of these areas or in the general subject area of `management´. We encourage potential applicants to contact academic staff on an individual basis for an informal discussion before submitting a research proposal. There are contact details of individual members of staff on our website.
