MSc in International Economic Consulting

• What are the costs and benefits of spreading public sector activities, e.g. decentralize university educations to a higher degree?
• Should farmers in Bangladesh receive direct financial support or just price guarantees?
• How many cars will need a parking space in Copenhagen in 2030 – and how many public and private electric vehicle-charging stations are needed to accommodate the shift to hybrid and electric cars and car sharing?
• How can CO2 quotas be priced and distributed in a market efficient manner?
• Which pipelines should be built in order to secure the EU's future gas supply and should European countries still effectively ban fracking?
• In light of recent disruptions in global supply chains, should a company reshore production or diversify its international providers of inputs and intermediate goods to include more countries than currently?

These and many other challenges situated at the intersection of economics and management form the basis of the MSc in International Economic Consulting. The increasing complexity of international relations has led to a steadily growing demand for international economic consulting services in which consultants have skills to handle the analysis of complex data, to combine the analysis with knowledge about economic business principles, and to report the results in clear writing and oral presentations. Large multinational corporations, regional and national policy-makers, international organisations like the World Bank, the EU, and the OECD, as well as a growing number of non-profit interest groups require sound economic analyses and feasibility studies for a wide range of issues.
