This is a high-calibre, 2-year extended Masters programme in Economics offered by the University of Mauritius in close collaboration with the African Economic Research Consortium (AERC website: www.aercafrica.org), a public, non-profit making organization devoted to advanced economic research and training, based in Nairobi, Kenya. Students will spend their first year at the University of Mauritius, where they will take 3 core modules and sit for the examinations (around May 2013). On successful completion of the core modules, students will travel to Nairobi late June 2013 to take 2 elective modules over one semester at the Joint Facility for Electives (JFE), Nairobi. Finally, they will return to the University of Mauritius to prepare their MA thesis during the 4th semester. All fees relating to the programme are payable to the University of Mauritius. However, the AERC, as per practice, will meet tuition costs for all students at the JFE, Nairobi. In addition, it will take care of the travel and accommodations costs for students not sponsored by their employer.
