Teaching methodStrong points of the pedagogical approach
The course offers students who have not gained a first or second degree in economics to form a programme which builds on what they have already achieved. The wide range of possible combinations include economics and management, economics and sociology, economics and quantitative methods.
The teaching methods are designed to train people who can explain and communicate their analyses to a wide range of audiences. Various components such as seminars, group work, a final dissertation and oral presentations will enable students to acquire skills in writing and expression required to practise economics at a professional level.
Depending on the activity, different forms of assessment are used. The assessment of work done for courses will usually take the form of an examination (written or oral) and/or a piece of individual work. The assessment of participation in seminars will be on the production and oral presentation of an individual piece of work or one done by a group. Final dissertations are assessed by a board of examiners, on the basis of the written document and it’s oral presentation , both at the intermediary and final stages.
