| Economic research requires not only thorough knowledge of theoretical models and
statistical tools but also deep understanding of institutional structures and
historical facts specific to each problem. The aim of this department is to
train researchers and specialists to be capable of applying current economic
theories to practical issues and policy designs in various aspects of
contemporary economies. The diversity of subject matters constitutes the very
distinct characteristic of this department. In deed, it deals with a wide
variety of special fields, such as fiscal policy and public economics, financial
institutions and monetary policy, industrial organization and economics of law,
international trade and global finance, labor economics and social policy, urban
studies and transportation economics, economic development and area studies.
Students in this department are, however, expected to choose a few of these
special fields and work on them intensively after having mastered the basics of
economic theory and statistical analysis. |
