Master of Arts (M.A.) in Economics is a 2-year postgraduate programme in the Arts & Humanities stream that develops strong grounding in economic analysis and evidence-based decision-making. The curriculum commonly covers advanced microeconomics and macroeconomics, mathematical methods for economists, and econometrics, along with applied papers such as public economics, international trade and finance, development economics, monetary economics, environmental economics, and labour economics. Students learn to interpret economic indicators, design and evaluate policies, and work with datasets using statistical techniques and software. Many universities include seminars, term papers, projects, and dissertation components to strengthen research and writing skills. Graduates can work in roles such as economist, policy analyst, research associate, data/financial analyst, or pursue higher studies like M.Phil./Ph.D. in Economics. The programme is suitable for students aiming for analytical careers in government, think tanks, financial institutions, and corporate strategy teams.
