Information on NAKE Courses


Introduction

NAKE offers a broad program of specialized courses aimed at second-year Research Master and Ph.D. students so that they get exposed to a great variety of recent developments in different fields of economics. This should both stimulate their current research and make them more flexible in their future careers.  

In the academic year 2011/12 NAKE has scheduled about eight field courses (of 6 ECTS each) and eight topics courses (of 3 ECTS each). The course program consists of a mix of courses in the field of macroeconomics, microeconomics, econometrics courses, and specialized topics. The composition of the field course program does not change much from year to year, but the topics modules can change depending on developments in fields and demand by graduate schools.

Teaching is centralized and takes place in Utrecht (at the Utrecht University College Campus). The educational calendar is organized so that the teaching program consists of six parts ("blocks") of five weeks of 2 hours lectures each.
