Compact Courses in Summer Semester 2024/2025

During Summer Semester 2024/2025 we will be again offering several compact courses that will be run in a “block” format, i.e. delivered over 2-3 days. All compact courses will count into the Summer Semester 2024/25 and are open for registration until (and including) the first day of the course, except the course Cambridge Lectures in Economic History, which requires registration until the end of March (one week before the course). Use the unique opportunity to meet visiting professors from universities abroad and experts from international and private financial institutions and gain new knowledge in economics and finance!

The course JEM334 Fiscal Policy, Public Debt and Sovereign Ratings is included as an elective course both for Bachelor’s and Master’s students. The course JEB143 Cambridge Lectures in Economic History is intended for Bachelor’s students. The last two compact courses are intended primarily for Master's students. They are open to Bachelor’s students as optional courses and their credits may be later transferred as electives to the Master's level (if the student has accumulated more than 180 credits during the Bachelor’s studies). More information can be found in the course syllabi of each course in SIS.
