Master of Economics Information Session Programme Mission Programme Details Our curriculum is designed to help students master economic analysis, use it creatively to find solutions to problems, and develop confidence in analysing issues and answering questions relevant to their work. Flexibility is a key character of the programme-students have a number of elective courses to choose from, and courses of varying blends of abstraction and applicability are available. In addition to courses offered by the MEcon Programme, students may also choose elective courses in the HKU Master of Finance (MFin) and Master of Business Administration (MBA) Programmes which are also offered by the Faculty of Business and Economics (FBE), subject to availability and approval of the Programme Director. Who Should Apply The MEcon Programme is most suitable for three types of students: those who have some economics training and consider starting a career as a professional economist; those who want to acquire advanced economics knowledge that is useful for them in the workplace; and those who simply wish to gain a systemic tool kit to understand the economic problems around us.
