The Economics, Institutions and Financial Markets program at LUISS Guido Carli University is a master’s-level degree that provides advanced training in economics and finance, focusing on how economic systems, institutions, and financial markets interact at both national and global levels. The program aims to equip students with strong theoretical, analytical, and quantitative skills to understand modern economic dynamics and financial systems.
The curriculum combines core subjects such as economic theory, macroeconomics, microeconomics, financial economics, and quantitative methods with specialized studies on financial markets, monetary policy, and economic institutions. Through a structured academic approach, students learn to analyze market behavior, evaluate financial instruments, and understand the regulatory and institutional frameworks that shape economic activity. This interdisciplinary training helps develop a critical perspective on global economic developments and financial decision-making.
The program typically lasts two years (120 ECTS credits) and is taught in English and/or Italian in Rome. It includes advanced coursework, applied research, and opportunities for internships with financial institutions, consulting firms, and public organizations. Graduates gain the skills needed for careers as economists, financial analysts, policy advisors, portfolio managers, or consultants, working in banks, international organizations, regulatory bodies, and multinational companies.
