Public policy challenges are everywhere: How can we combat climate change and shape the economy towards a more sustainable future? Does the rise and dominance of new firms in the digital sector call for strict anti-trust measures? Does increasing concentration of incomes and wealth call for more redistribution or intervention on the labor market?
The curriculum of the Master in Economics and Public Policy provides you with the tools that you need to understand public policy challenges and to develop effective solutions. In a series of core courses you will learn the fundamentals of economics and quantitative methods essential for the analysis of public policy using real-world applications.
Moreover, you can specialize in one of three economic policy fields: Energy & the environment, competition & regulation, and health & labor markets. This will sharpen your profile and foster your skills directed towards problem solving in the manifold areas of economic policy.
Your lecturers are internationally renowned scholars, dedicated researchers, and policy advisers active in these areas.

Competition and Regulation: Competition is a fundamental force in a market economy. It provides incentives to invent, improve and excel. However, competition does not naturally arise in some markets. In this field, we investigate threats to competition and discuss how rules can be designed to improve market outcomes. Competition is also crucial for the public domain, as political parties compete for voters and local governments for firms and taxpayers.
Environment and Energy: Environmental and energy policy has become one of the most hotly debated policy fields in industrialized countries. How do we combat climate change? Which policies and market designs can be used to facilitate the transition to renewable energy? How can we handle the side effects of an increasing demand for mobility? How we answer these questions has huge important implications. Economists provide advice both to public agencies designing policies and to firms deciding on future market strategies that are influenced by these policies.
Health and Labor: Ageing populations, digitalization and the Corona pandemic have dramatic impacts on health care and social security systems, insurance and labor markets. How can we ensure the sustainability of the health care and pension system with increasing shares of older people? How can we cope with rapidly changing work environments? Sound answers require a profound understanding of how supply and demand of labor and health care are intertwined with public regulation.
