Overview

This page covers Behavioural Economics across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a one year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in Economics covers finance, marketing, operations and people management before you pick a specialism, which suits applicants who have not settled on one yet.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
