The Program
The M.A. in Political Economy of Money and Development is a 12- to 15-month, full-time, course-based, intensive program. Students will acquire skills of theoretical and practical relevance in three areas: new and changing views of macroeconomic policy management, state-of-the-art tools of political, economic and financial analysis, and the changing role of developing and emerging economies in the global economy.
Structure
The program consists of three terms, with the last devoted to the thesis, with the option of an internship, and begins with an orientation session to listen to students’ interests and backgrounds that will help us to tailor the program to match students’ profiles.
This program is aimed at highly motivated students who will be exposed to a unique learning experience in small class settings.
