Director’s MessageIndia is amongst the fastest growing nations in the world despite 2008 crisis and recent globalslowdown. Since 2003-04, the Indian economy has registered an average rate of growth of 8.2 per cent. At thesame time, it is highly vulnerable to exchange rate movements and global crude oil prices. In addition, thegrowth is not inclusive. While the growth declined to 6.5 percent in 2011-12, the inflation remained high.Many agencies also forecast that global growth prospects remain sluggish 2012 onwards and the Indianeconomy will grow well below its potential level. To emerge out of this under performance, effective stepsneed to be taken.Given the nature of the growth dynamism and complexity of interrelations among theeconomies/sectors, there is a need to train more and more economists who can easily grasp the situations andfind suitable remedies. MSE plays an important role in this regard. While it is relatively young as compared tomany reputed institutions in the country, it has expanded its teaching programmes rapidly.In 2010, we had started three new P.G programmes, namely M.Sc. Actuarial Economics, M.Sc. AppliedQuantitative Finance and M.Sc. Environmental Economics. Last year onwards, our well establishedprogrammes of M.Sc. in General Economics and Financial Economics have been offered at MSE incollaboration with Central University of Tamil Nadu (CUTN), Thiruvarur. This year, the other threeprogrammes are being offered in collaboration with CUTN. Accordingly, the number of graduating studentshas been progressively increasing.In all programmes, we follow analytical approach. Potential employers of MSE graduates will findthem to be well trained in economic/financial theories, quantitative techniques, statistical and econometricsoftwares, aware of the macroeconomic environment of the country, conscious of the policy dilemmas and awell developed sense of social responsibility. MSE alumni have proved themselves conduit to all the fieldsthat they became part of including analytics, research, policy making, banks, universities and NGOs. Thecurrent batch carries similar potential and will surely keep the MSE flag flying high, surpassing all the nichescarved by their seniors.I wish them “Good Luck”.K.R. Shanmugam, Director, MSE
