The logical thinking developed in this programme helps one understand tasks at work or solve real-life problems faster. We apply our strategic knowledge in a business environment, by playing simulation games. These studies are useful not only for those who want to set up and run their own business more efficiently, but also for those who want to understand how decisions are made in companies.
I have a management job, so I wanted to understand whether the many seminars I have had on the subject are the same as or different from the information in my studies. And if they differ, to assess whether we are choosing the right training within the company. I am satisfied with the MSc in Business Economics, and I was surprised by the high quality of the studies. The programme lasts 1.5 years and it was not difficult to combine studies with work.
Business economists are in high demand in large companies where decisions are based on data, economic insights and market analysis.
