Taught Masters
The Department's MSc programmes have a long-standing international prestigious reputation for academic excellence. LSE is ranked 1st in Europe, and 6th in the world, for Economics and Econometrics, according to the QS World University Rankings by Subject.
We train our MSc students to think deeply and rigorously about economic problems, imparting advanced analytical and technical skills that are highly prized by global employers, research centres and academic departments across the world.
Programmes
This is a challenging yet inspiring programme. I’ve learnt to think for myself, work independently and take initiative while maintaining a strong sense of belonging in a large and diverse cohort. As well as examining cutting-edge research and industry best practice, you have the motivation and methodology behind studies explained to you in person by those that conducted them.
Further information
