The two-year full-time MSc Economics programme provides an international quality education in Economics and Econometrics. It is specifically targeted at students who have an interest in a career in Economics but do not currently have sufficient background in the subject. The first year of the programme provides the requisite background, while the second year entails MHH52.

The programme is designed to help the student become a problem solver and therefore enhance their flexibility in the job market. It is a stimulating and challenging degree that aims to provide the student with a wide range of skills demanded by prospective employers. Successful graduates attain economic, quantitative and communication skills that are highly sought by employers in the public and private sectors.

Recent graduates have taken up positions at institutions like the Central Bank of Ireland, the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI), the Irish Government Economic and Evaluation Service (IGEES) and the Central Statistics Office, while others have pursued careers in economic consultancy, economic development, retail and investment banking, financial services and fund management. Some continue to PhD programmes to pursue an academic career. The diverse career paths reflect the adaptability and flexibility of our graduates.

The department offers four partial scholarships for the MSc Economics programme; part-time students may be eligible for this scholarship in their second year – see here for details.
