a teaching institution for the award of the Master’s and Ph.D. degrees in
Economics, Agricultural Economics and Population Studies. The flagship
postgraduate program in Economics offered at the institute is a nationally

M. Sc. (Financial Economics)
        The M. Sc. (Financial Economics) programme is designed to meet
the increasing demand in this domain by combining solid training in
economic theory with practical exposure to the field of finance through a
variety of specialised options. The course is especially distinctive in the link
it establishes between economic theory, quantitative finance and financial
regulation.
       The M. Sc. (Financial Economics) programme is distinct from the
conventional finance programmes, notably on account of its emphasis on
the three-way linkage between macroeconomics, financial markets and
financial regulations. Inputs in quantitative finance in the form of
compulsory papers in Financial Economics, Computational Finance and
Financial Engineering are highlights of the programme. In addition, the
programme provides for full-length courses on Project Appraisal &
Finance, Structural Products, M&A, and Investment Banking, among others.
M. Sc. (Agribusiness Economics)
       The M. Sc. (Agribusiness Economics) programme prepares students
for careers in the agribusiness sector, both as officers in agribusiness
organisations and as economists in agribusiness related research
organisations. The academic content of the program has three major
modules: an Economics module, a Management module, and an
Agribusiness module. The economics module equips students with the core
economics principles as well as advanced quantitative techniques that are
the basic tools used to analyse questions of business and policy. The
agribusiness module complements these tools with a broad grasp of the
current theory, data, and issues (both business as well as policy)
surrounding the agribusiness sector in India. The management module
provides students with an overview of essential managerial skills such as
accounting, finance, marketing, supply chain management, risk
management, and insurance.
       The three modules together provide students with the necessary
theoretical knowledge to embark on a successful career as officers in
agribusiness organisations or as economists in agribusiness related
research organisations. In addition to numerous field trips during the
program, students hone their practical skills in a 2 month internship with
leading sector organisations at the end of the first year of the program.
