ACADEMIC YEAR 2026-2027
MEDI evolving into MEDIP
PLEASE NOTE: MEDI is evolving into MEDIP (Master Programme in Economics and Data Analysis for Industry and Policy). A new course synopsis is coming soon, designed to combine rigorous theoretical and empirical training with a truly interdisciplinary approach that bridges political economy, mathematics and statistics, business economics, and law. In the first year, students will follow a shared curriculum focused on developing strong quantitative and methodological foundations. In the second year, they can choose between two specialized tracks:
- Industry Track – exploring innovation, digital markets, and competition.
- Policy Track – focusing on evidence-based analysis and the evaluation of public policies.
By the end of the program, graduates will be ready to tackle complex real-world challenges in both national and international contexts equipped to work on innovation, market regulation, and the design of sustainable policies for a changing world.
