Today Dr Graeme Roy, Deputy Director of the Scottish Government Economic Service, gave his State of the Economy lecture to the MSc Applied Economics students. Designed to enable economics graduates to develop the skills necessary to work as applied professional economists in government and industry, or to progress to a PhD in Economics in an applied area, the MSc Applied Economics programme aims to provide students with in-depth and extensive critical knowledge at the forefront of economic and econometric theory. Graeme also gave a presentation on the Government Economic service to our undergraduate students. Our economics graduates go on to careers in business, government, education, or private research and consulting. They are highly employable and gain relatively high earnings compared to other disciplines.
