Course programme

The first year focuses on core courses in Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Econometrics and Mathematics (Probability, Statistics and Optimization). The first semester is spent in Paris. To facilitate student mobility during the second semester, the universities offer almost identical courses. For a detailed first year programme, see here.

The second year focuses on specialisation and is spent in one of the four consortium universities. There are several areas of specialisation on offer, such as:

  • Microeconomics
  • Macroeconomics
  • International Economics
  • Finance
  • Econometrics
  • Mathematical Economics
  • Game Theory
  • Behavioural Economics
  • Experimental Economics
  • Public Economics

These being areas which are emergent, rapidly evolving, and of growing impact upon society, there is much demand for specialised competencies in these fields. This list is subject to change. For a detailed second year programme, see here.
