- Description/content
- The Double Master's Programme in Economics gives you the opportunity to benefit from the expertise of two top universities. You will spend one year studying at each university and graduate with two Master's degrees: a Master of Science in Economics awarded by the University of Cologne and a Master of Arts in Economics awarded by Keio University in Tokyo, Japan.
Economics focuses on how governments, companies, institutions, households and individuals allocate their limited resources. The study programme provides you with broad methodological expertise and knowledge of a variety of theoretical approaches. You will learn to independently analyse and develop conceptual models to predict responses to changes in policy and market conditions. The international orientation of the Double Master's Programme enables you to learn how to solve complex economic problems in a globalised, interconnected world by considering cross-national connections and effects.
