Course summary

This unique Masters programme combines the core disciplines of Economics and Law to equip you with the essential skills required to pursue a successful career such as in the global oil and gas industry, legal, financial or in related governmental organisations. This unique Master’s programme at the University of Aberdeen offers a distinctive blend of economics and legal studies, tailored for those aiming to excel in the global oil and gas industry, legal sectors, financial institutions, or related governmental bodies. This programme delves into the complexities of the energy sector, influenced by factors such as government-regulated hydrocarbons, financial markets, global oil dynamics, economic uncertainties, licensing, taxation, and contractual agreements.
