Economist and policy maker

The 2-year MSc programme in European Environmental Economics and Policy prepares you to take on one of the most complex and demanding policy areas for EU and its member states in the 21st century: the green transition. You will gain a firm interdisciplinary footing in both environmental economics and environmental policy, equipping you to effectively design, implement, and analyse policy solutions for the complex environmental challenges.

Graduates obtain a double degree from University of Copenhagen and their pathway university (Heidelberg, Milano, Warsaw or Charles in Prague). Getting a double degree means that graduates receive two national degrees – one degree from each university where they have completed 60 ECTS.

Graduates from this programme will often be involved in solving broad-spectrum environmental policy challenges that require interplay between economic analysis, political analysis, a firm understanding of policy in practice, and interdisciplinary teamwork.
