Pune (Maharashtra) [India], March 27: The Symbiosis School of Economics (SSE), a constituent institute of Symbiosis International (Deemed University), has announced the opening of admissions for its undergraduate and postgraduate Economics programmes for the upcoming academic session. Designed to nurture analytical thinking, policy understanding, and data-driven decision-making, the programmes aim to develop the next generation of economists, researchers, and policy leaders.
Established in 2008, SSE has emerged as one of India's leading institutions dedicated exclusively to economics education. The institute offers a rigorous and interdisciplinary curriculum that blends theoretical foundations with quantitative analysis, enabling students to understand complex economic systems and contribute meaningfully to policymaking, finance, development, and data-driven industries.
Admissions are currently open for the B.Sc. Economics (Honours / Honours with Research) and M.Sc. Economics programmes. The undergraduate programme is a three- to four-year full-time course that provides a strong grounding in core areas such as microeconomics, macroeconomics, econometrics, and mathematical economics, while also exposing students to contemporary themes like development economics, international trade, finance, and Artificial Intelligence.
The M.Sc. Economics programme is a two-year postgraduate course designed to equip students with advanced analytical tools, research methods, and applied economic perspectives. The programme prepares graduates for careers in public policy, financial institutions, research organisations, consulting firms, and international development agencies.
