The English-language Master's degree programme "Economics of the Middle East" (EMEA) is designed as a combination of two components, which is unique in this form: National economics theories and methods combined with a detailed examination of the economies of the "Middle East and North Africa" (MENA) region and in particular of the Arab states. The modules offered as part of the degree course cover, on the one hand, the central topics of a Master's degree programme in economics (micro- and macroeconomics, econometrics, specialised courses).
