The International Economics Programme is the best in Eastern Europe in the category of Economics, according to the Eduniversal Best Masters Ranking 2021.

The two-year master’s degree programme in International Economics is conducted in English and leads to a master’s degree. The main goal of the programme is to provide participants with advanced knowledge in the field of international economics which is comparable to the master’s degree programmes offered at the best universities in the European Union. It provides a theoretical background for those who wish to continue their studies with doctoral studies in economics, at home or abroad. It lays the foundations for those who wish to find employment in international institutions which handle international economics issues, in the national public sector or in international business.
