The Master in Economics and Public Policy (MEPP) provides the theoretical and practical tools to understand and question the role of States in responding to the challenges that contemporary economies face. In particular, it promotes the development of skills related to the design, management and evaluation of public policies, taking into account various scales of governance (local, regional, national, European and global) and the relationship between them.
The Master is intended for people interested in the intervention of States in the functioning and development of economies. Students of the MEPP include economists (recent graduates or not) who wish to deepen their knowledge and skills in those areas, graduates from other scientific fields interested in economic approaches to the challenges of contemporary societies, as well as public policy professionals (policy makers, managers and technicians of public agencies, consultants, evaluators, etc.).
Director(s) message
Welcome to MEPP!
In contemporary societies, States are perpetually called upon to respond to various challenges, such as the qualification of people, the internationalisation of companies, unemployment, inequality of income and wealth, territorial cohesion, sustainable development, market regulation, financial stability, among others. The understanding of the role of the State, the forms of intervention and the dilemmas faced by public decision-makers are central themes that you will find in this Master.
