Master in Economics, University of Udine

The master program in Economics/Scienze economiche is divided into two curricula: “Economics” and “Sustainable Development”. The first one permits students to obtain a double degree from the Universities of Udine and Graz. 

The courses offered in the two curricula are taught in English. The program of the curriculum in Sustainable Development is entirely held in Udine, while students enrolled in the curriculum in Economics can either follow the entire program in Udine or spend a semester at the Department of Economics of the University of Graz, achieving there at least 30 ECTS, in order to obtain the double degree. Students who plan to attend courses in Graz can apply for grants reserved to them and assigned according to the rules established by a specific announcement of selection.
