Master Programme in Economics
Public Economics Profile
The Public Economics Profile of the Master Programme in Economics is aimed at providing specialised competence in public
economics. It is also an excellent preparation for those aiming at PhD studies in economics with a specialisation in public economics.
There is no requirement of following a specific profile (that is, one can take specialisation courses from
different profiles), but it is highly recommended. A profile will give you a specialised area
in Economics and by following one of the recommended structures you will also be well
prepared for the master essay.
