• Based on modern methods and concepts, the degree programme in economics conveys a sound understanding of economic relationships. Thanks to the skills and competencies acquired during the academic programme, graduates will be able to successfully analyse and develop economic and societal processes.
  • Therefore, acquisition of the theoretical tools, mathematical methods and empirical techniques associated with economics are an important prerequisite that can be complemented by explanatory approaches of neighbouring disciplines in the social sciences, such as politics and sociology. 
  • The core areas of economics include compulsory modules in the various areas of economics, including microeconomics, macroeconomics, public finance, mathematics and statistics, as well as specialisation options on the basis of elective modules in which students can familiarise themselves with many different topical areas of economics.
