Why did you choose Warwick?

From my time as a Diploma student, I had the privilege of experiencing first-hand just how excellent the Economics Department is, particularly its teaching methodology. Their approach to econometrics, in particular, stood out and left a lasting impression. As such, this convinced me to pursue an MSc in Economics at the University of Warwick and learn economics in greater depth.

What appealed to you about the courses and what did you enjoy the most?

In particular, I enjoyed how econometrics was taught and intuitively explained by Professor Manuel Bagues.

What skills have you developed and how have they helped in your chosen career?

I developed a strong understanding of the basics of macroeconomics, microeconomics, and econometrics, which helped me in the job market and am using these concepts at work on a daily basis. Combining these with the dissertation, I learned how to apply these concepts in the real world and manage/conduct an analysis in a structured way.

What job do you do now and which skills do you use?

I work as an Economic Consultant in the Competition Economics and Antitrust industry. I use concepts from microeconomics, industrial economics, and econometrics. I use STATA to perform data analysis which is an important part of the job.
