"The programme’s focus was practical and I liked that. We worked on existing problems facing organisations across different sectors and countries, from group projects on multinational expansion to an organisation-based dissertation at a startup, applying knowledge within real life context."

“I would recommend the MSc in Applied Economics to anyone looking for a rigorous programme that is clearly geared toward applied work. It works well even if you are new to the discipline, because it does a strong job of bringing you into it and developing the habits and tools you need to contribute. For anyone considering it, my main advice would be to come in ready to engage fully with the material and to treat the degree as a chance to practice using economics on real questions, not simply to learn concepts in the abstract.

“That applied focus is also what shaped where I chose to study. I wanted to learn in a setting known for high-quality research and experienced teaching, and Strathclyde has lived up to that. The programme has felt demanding and practical. Strathclyde describes itself as 'the place of useful learning' and that has matched my experience so far.”
