In an era defined by rapid digitalisation and globalisation, the ability to transform raw data into strategic economic intelligence is a vital asset. This two-year programme at Jönköping International Business School (JIBS) bridges the gap between abstract economic theory and the practical demands of the modern workplace. You will move beyond traditional modelling, gaining proficiency in programming languages like Python while mastering the statistical rigour required to navigate complex, large-scale datasets.

The learning experience is deeply rooted in the JIBS philosophy of connecting academic inquiry with real-world impact.
