IIFT MA ECONOMICS Revenue and Competitors

IIFT has launched its first-ever MA (Economics) Programme with Specialisation in Trade and Finance in both Delhi and Kolkata Campuses on Aug 01, 2018. A total of 27 students have taken admission in the first batch. The specific objectives of the Programme are: - To prepare students to become excellent trade policy-makers and key strategists on trade issues in the corporate sector, involved directly or indirectly in international trade and financial transactions. - To equip students with a set of tools, which would help them to solve real world problems. - To prepare students to be full-time academicians, with specialized knowledge in international economics and finance. The Institute has over a half-a-century experience in working as a think tank to the Government of India. It regularly advises the government on issues related to trade through commissioned research reports. The expertise developed by such interactions and teaching applied issues to management students is expected to give a new dimension to the course not available in similar courses in other universities and institutes. Experienced faculty equipped with knowledge of Trade and Finance would guide the students to become managers and policy-makers of the future. Additionally, those oriented towards taking up academics as their career would benefit immensely from the rigorous courses taught in the programme.
