The Master in Economics and International Policies (MEPIN) is offered
by the Faculty of Economics of Università della Svizzera italiana, USI,
based in Lugano, in collaboration with Alta Scuola di Economia e
Relazioni Internazionali (ASERI) of Università Cattolica del Sacro
Cuore, based in Milan. The full-time study programme comprises 120 ECTS
for a usual duration of 4 semesters and gives the possibility of
obtaining a double degree, i.e:
a Swiss Master's degree awarded by USI (Laurea magistrale under Swiss law);
a first-level university Master's degree issued by the ASERI of the
Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore of Milan under Italian legislation.
In
the new edition, more space has been given to economics and political
science subjects and two courses in 'Methodology of Social Research'
have been introduced. The MEPIN offers a wide range of scientific tools
and specific skills that are indispensable for understanding the
economic and political phenomena linked to globalisation and the
functioning of public and international institutions. The proposed
Master's programme develops its curriculum around the interdisciplinary
study of economics, finance, law, international institutions and
international politics. It will also provide multidisciplinary and
managerial knowledge necessary to address issues such as sustainable
development, economic and financial ethics and, more generally, forms of
cooperation between public authorities and private economic operators
aimed at achieving a common objective, such as the provision of a
service or the creation and management of a project.
