Our students'
experiences:
"Ultimately, studying this master’s program has transformed the way I understand the world around me. Now, I see it through the lens of an economist, shaped by methodological individualism, subjectivism, opportunity costs, and marginalism. Without a doubt, an unparalleled perspective for interpreting the events happening around me."

"Honestly, I am very happy with how the master’s program has been progressing so far. I feel like I am learning a lot of new content, with minimal overlap with what I studied during my Economics degree at the University of Salamanca—something I was initially concerned about. However, after experiencing the teaching methods, the course structure, and the overall approach, I am very satisfied with the program, and it looks promising in terms of maintaining its high standards."

"When I saw that I had to take a preparatory course in Econometrics, I thought it would be a basic 'crash course' on the subject. I was pleasantly surprised when it not only provided in-depth knowledge that proved essential for the master’s program but also sparked an interest in the subject that I never expected to have when I started. Beyond that, the other preparatory courses, though optional in my case, were a great opportunity to review statistical concepts, delve deeper into topics such as economic growth and market failures, and engage in insightful discussions with my new classmates and an outstanding faculty. These courses are a valuable addition to .h, and I highly recommend making the most of them."
