Master of Advanced Economics

Consider your internationally recognised master's qualification in economics an investment in long-term career success.

During your 24 course units you'll study courses influenced by the latest economic research and be taught by world class academic staff, ensuring you receive a renowned and recognised quality education in advanced economics.

If you want to demonstrate your capacity in applying techniques from the program, enrol in this extended version and undertake a research thesis over the next semester. Course units include advanced econometric theory (2), research thesis (8), quantitative skills for economics (2) and microeconomics A (2). There's also macroeconomics A (2) and B (2), computational methods in economics (2) and advanced microeconometrics (2).

This program is often taken as a pathway to PhD studies at UQ. It's also suitable as a standalone credential for those who want to fast-track their careers as economists in sectors that do not require a doctorate.
