If you‘re looking to study and analyse pressing economic problems using advanced data analytic techniques, the MSc Economics with Data Analytics is for you. The Department of Economics and the School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering have created a joint course that allows you to develop the economic and computational tools to not just isolate problems but also develop sophisticated evidence-based answers.
