Overview

Energy Economics and Finance is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a one year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in Economics is taught in large cohorts at most universities, so seminar groups and the tutor system matter more than the lecture list when you compare departments.

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