Economics, Data Analytics and Corporate Finance (MSc)

The Economics, Data Analytics and Corporate Finance track of Ecole Polytechnique’s Master of Science and Technology is a two-year course taught entirely in English. It provides students with essential skills for strategic decision-making in the corporate world.

The program combines three complementary disciplines that are usually taught separately at this level of study:

Microeconomic analysis: The microeconomics component gives students the tools for learning about markets and strategic interactions within an ever-changing environment. Students focus on areas such as industrial organization, decision theory, market design, and digital economics, using the theoretical tools of game theory and microeconomic modelling.

Corporate finance: This field deals with the analysis of corporate strategic decisions. Our students take classes in financial accounting, corporate finance, financial analysis, hedging techniques etc. They get to grips with various analytical techniques according to each subject, and tackle quantitative case studies.

Data analytics: Gaining crucial knowledge in econometrics, statistics and big data, the program equips students with the skills to analyze and interpret data.
