						Hosting one of the largest databases for developing countries in the world, we offer you a unique possibility to analyse poverty, inequality and economic development in an international context. Using recent theoretical insights and modern empirical methods, you will be actively involved in comparative research on issues in developing countries such as the impact of globalisation on economic growth, corruption, the education of children, child labour and women's empowerment.

State-of-the-art theoretical understanding are combined with a rigorous empirical approach. Besides international economics courses focusing on the role of international financial markets, institutions and culture, this track offers students in-depth theoretical and empirical knowledge of current issues in the development field.

The analytical attitude, strong empirical skills and broad theoretical knowledge obtained in this programme prepare you well for a career in international organisations (Worldbank, UN), national governments, development-oriented consultancy firms and research positions.

The Master's in International Economics and Development is a specialisation of the Master's programme in Economics.
