About this course

What will I learn?

This MA course in comparative economics draws upon expertise within UCL’s School of School of Slavonic and East European Studies (SSEES). The programme is centred around the economics and economic policy of emerging markets, viewed through the prism of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union, but relevant to the emerging economies and societies of South and South-East Asia, the Middle East and North Africa as well as Latin America. The MA focuses on the development experiences of the 28 nations that have emerged from the former Soviet bloc in Europe and Asia. You will analyse the impact of institutional reforms on diverse outcomes, including economic performance, socio-economic development, financial integration, democratisation, innovation and entrepreneurship, and internationalisation. The programme is suitable for those who wish to develop the skills necessary for further research or a career in this field.
