Economics – second-cycle Master’s studies Specialisation – International Business
Second-cycle studies in economics provide a comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of economics and the ability to manage financial, human and material resources. The knowledge imparted during the studies allows students to learn the principles of advanced analytical methods that facilitate the study of economic phenomena.
Graduates are able to work in diverse conditions of the international market environment and in multicultural teams, and have the skills to cooperate in a team as well as to lead teams. Graduates will learn models of economic growth and development, including sustainable development, as well as the mechanisms of functioning of the modern world economy and national economies open to international flows. With an understanding of the functioning of the international market, one is very well prepared to work abroad. You also acquire managerial skills, including human resource management, communication, team formation and management, combined with the ability to make decisions under conditions of risk and on the basis of proper data interpretation. An important part of the training is learning foreign languages to the extent that they can be used freely in professional work. Graduates will be able to use specialist language in the field of economics. The second-cycle studies also provide the basis for further education in post-graduate and doctoral (third-cycle) studies, and enable the student to undertake research and/or educational work.
