This two-year Master's programme in International Economics and Public Policy (MIEPP) is designed for students who aim to understand both the opportunities and the challenges faced by private and public decision-makers in an integrated world economy. It offers a sound training in economic theory and econometric techniques, enables students to discuss modern academic literature critically, and encourages them to apply their knowledge to relevant issues in business and economic policy.
The Johannes Gutenberg University (JGU) Mainz looks back on a rich tradition of research and teaching in international economics and public policy. Its academic faculty is well-anchored in the scientific community, visibly participates in both academic and public discussions, and is committed to conveying up-to-date economic knowledge to its students. The university campus offers excellent facilities (library, computer labs, Internet access, etc.), and the structure of the programme encourages a close interaction between faculty members and students.
The career service centre at Johannes Gutenberg University supports students and graduates in choosing a career, planning their professional future, and acquiring interdisciplinary skills. The centre offers a variety of services, such as counselling, workshops, and recruiting events.
Academic admission requirements
Academic admission requirements include a Bachelor's degree (or comparable) in economics, business, or a related discipline. For detailed information on how and where to apply, please consult the homepage of our programme.
Language requirements
Language requirements can be fulfilled by a completed "Test of English as a Foreign Language" (TOEFL) with at least 227 points (computer based test, CBT), 87 points (Internet-based test, iBT), 567 points (paper-based test, PBT), IELTS with at least 5.0 points, or "Cambridge First Certificate" (FCE) if the Bachelor's degree has not been achieved in a programme taught entirely in English. The issuing date of the certificates should not be older than three years, relative to the application deadline. It is possible to apply for admission to the MIEPP programme before taking the TOEFL/ IELTS/ FCE. In this case, the results of the TOEFL/ IELTS/ FCE have to be submitted by the student at the end of the semester in which she/he started her/his studies. If this proof is not provided on time, the admission will be rescinded.
Note that passing the TOEFL ITP test does not satisfy the admission requirements. As far as the IELTS is concerned, applicants are recommended to pass the IELTS Academic test.
The Master's programme in International Economics and Public Policy (MIEPP) consists of three major components: core modules, elective modules, and the Master's thesis, combined with a research colloquium.
Students commencing studies in the winter semester start by attending mandatory courses that review and deepen basic concepts and methods in international trade, development economics, public economics, and macroeconomics. During the second and third semesters, they specialise in either International Economics or Public Policy, selecting from a broad menu of courses that range from international macroeconomics and finance to labour economics, applied microeconomics, behavioural economics, as well as statistics and econometrics. Students commencing studies in the summer semester start by attending elective modules in their first semester and attend the mandatory core modules in their second semester.
All courses have a strong focus on policy issues and empirical applications. The last semester is reserved for a Master's thesis, in which students document their ability to competently analyse a topical research question.
