Your future

We educate professional economists with a thorough understanding of economic theory and advanced methods. Our graduates are educated to apply their skills and knowledge to make well-founded decisions and formulate policy advice to address societal challenges. Our graduates pursue careers as:

  • Policymakers
  • Economic analysts
  • Business managers
  • Consultants
  • Researchers

The portfolio includes public policy jobs at (non-) governmental organisations (e.g., OECD, World Bank, EC, national ministries, statistical offices, research institutions), analyst positions in private industry (banks, funds, insurances, consultancy firms, tech companies) as well as media and researcher positions in academia. The specialisations fine tune the job profiles.
