Program Overview: Economic Analysis and Policy
The Master's Degree in Economic Analysis and Policy at the University of Turin is part of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree program EPOG-JM (Economic Policies for the Global Bifurcation), financed by the European Union. It trains a new generation of international experts capable of defining, developing, and assessing economic policies within diverse political, social, and regional contexts.
The program addresses present and future challenges of economic transition associated with digitization, climate change, and the opposing pressures for or against globalization. Students develop strong quantitative skills and learn to organize, manage, and analyze large databases using advanced statistical and econometric methodologies.
With a pluralist approach and interdisciplinary perspectives, this master's goes beyond standard economic theory to include various heterodox and institutionalist political economy approaches. Students benefit from an international study experience across multiple European partner universities, with particular attention to language training in English, French, and Italian.
