Economics is a social science that deals with the production, trade and use of goods and services. As such, it provides an analytical basis for decisions made in business and government.

An Economics Postgraduate Coursework degree from the Division of Economics and Financial Studies (EFS) provides expertise and skills required for a large range of careers. As well as working as economists, economics graduates work in a range of positions in banking and finance, management, marketing, education, environmental protection, government and politics.

The program builds from a Postgraduate Certificate in Applied Economics through the Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Economics to the Master of Economics award.

These degrees are especially suitable for candidates seeking to extend or acquire economics training and are also useful for candidates without Honours 1 or 2/1 seeking a qualifying program for PhD entry.
