To me, the biggest positives of studying the Economics MSc at LMU are academic flexibility, research opportunities, and life in Munich. First, the Department of Economics faculty specialize in many fields of economics, and the course structure allows for a high degree of individual choice. Second, the various research institutes around Munich offer many opportunities to attend talks and take specialized courses, and also offer part-time research assistant jobs. Third, Munich is green, quite walkable, and feels like a “student city” – and the mountains are nearby for weekend trips!
