- This challenging Honours program, which is named after Wim Duisenberg, the first President of the European Central Bank, will give students not only quantitative econometric and mathematical skills, but also the hands-on practical experience to be able to implement econometric models in the workplace from day one. That’s why all our students have job offers before they graduate with their Master’s – and also why they’re ready to hit the ground running when they start their careers.
- This demanding program attracts only the best and brightest minds – the study load is 84 EC compared to the regular 60 EC, which means students are learning far more than they would at equivalent programs elsewhere, and can expect the Master’s to take a few months longer to complete as well.
- Students will come out of the program as fully-fledged professionals – ready to work independently as soon as they start their first job. No further training needed!
- Students will also have the opportunity to take workshops in soft skills – such as communications, leadership, presentation, and public speaking skills – as part of a tailor-made program to train them to become a future CFO or CRO.
