Introduction:
The Symbiosis School of Economics seeks to develop intellectual discipline and valuable skill sets
required for rational thinking and optimal decision making. The approach is descriptive and
analytical and many issues of national and international policy are considered. Economics at SSE is
regarded and taught as a part of liberal education and provides an especially relevant background
for several professions. The course has been designed with an inclination towards, Mathematics,
Statistics, Finance, Law, Environment and Politics. As a result, it provides a strong foundation in
Economic theory and practice. With its interdisciplinary flavour it will prepare students for post
graduation courses in Law, Journalism, Business and Economics and provide them with career
opportunities in various industries, financial institutions, media & communication, government,
research and academia.
Students use the skills they develop through the coursework, to write their independent projects
and papers. Each student in the sixth semester needs to take up a four credit project and is guided
through the process of designing, researching, and writing a paper on a topic of his or her choice
with many being encouraged to make use of econometric techniques. The environment here is
disciplined & rigorous, at the same time giving plenty of scope for creativity, originality and student
initiatives.
