A second-cycle programme in International Economics is increasingly essential in the
global economy. The programme offers cutting-edge knowledge and skills in the field of
international economics and is the best master in international economics in Central and
Eastern Europe. The programme places emphasis on in-depth knowledge of analytical
tools and empirical research techniques, aiming at producing top-class economic
analysts. Through the study of the diverse forces that are shaping the global economy and
its institutions, the M.A. Program in International Economics at the University of Warsaw
equips its graduates to function effectively in a rapidly changing world. The selection of
courses aims at providing students with solid bases of economics at advanced level and
making them familiar with the latest issues and instruments related to international
economics used in scientific research, business and international institutions. The
structure of the programme allows for linking the compulsory subjects at the first year
with selected specialized subjects at the second year of studies. First year students are
required to complete advanced courses on the theory of economics including advanced
macro- and microeconomics, macro- and microeconometrics, mathematical methods as
well as courses which constitute introduction to specializations which include monetary
economics, international migrations and theory of international trade. During the second
year of studies each student follows an individual course of studies by selecting
specialized classes. A strong emphasis on the ability to use analytic instruments for solving
real problems in practice and implementing new solutions stimulates creativity and
prepares students for challenges they will face at further stages of their professional
career. Students of the International Economics programme are also offered the
possibility to obtain a double-degree diploma: magister degree (comparable to Master of
Arts) in International Economics issued by the University of Warsaw as well as a master
degree diploma obtained at one of the foreign Universities under bilateral agreement.
EU and EFTA citizens - 2100 EUR per academic year,
