The Programme - An Overview
**This programme will be permanently withdrawn, and no longer available in the 2016/17 session. Prospective students who were interested in this programme should consider applying for the MSc Economics (Two Year Programme).**
The preliminary year of the two-year MSc in Econometrics and Mathematical Economics is a nine-month programme whose objective is to admit students with high academic ability and and to develop their skills to the point where they are eligible to the main MSc year. The course is sometimes described as the Diploma in Econometrics and Mathematical Economics because that is the name of the degree awarded at the end of the year to those who have passed the examinations. For the purposes of further study or future employment, the Diploma is broadly equivalent to the bachelor's degree in
economics awarded by the LSE. Your attention is also drawn to the requirements
for progression from the preliminary year to year two of the programme.
