MSc In Development Economics at UEA

Sharvari, is one of the International student from South East Asia who is currently doing MSc in Development Economics at UEA.

MSc applies economic analyses to real world problems to identify effective policies and this course integrates methods, research findings and new insights from experimental economics

Why at UEA?

UEA has a very good approach to the course, it provides not only academic knowledge but a wide range of professional and technical competencies and practical skills which is required by the International development sector.

Sharvari adds, 'The course is very technical, using computer programmes to analyse data is a helpful skill. There is good outlook on the micro and macro perspective of the development sector'.

'The course module on Impact Evaluation has been an added advantage in understanding different ways to estimate the impact of a project and to see if the project did what it was set out to do'. There are also exciting additional optional modules which range from educational policy to conflict, civil war and peace.

The course is made more inspiring by the approachable teachers and the immense support system provided by the university.

Overall the course prepares the students to join non-development organisations such as NGOs, international organisations or even to undertake a PhD later on!
