Students interested in reconceptualising prosperity for the 21st century should look no further than a new MSc in Global Prosperity.
This year, the UCL Institute for Global Prosperity launched a new interdisciplinary 鈥� the first course of its kind anywhere. This intensive graduate degree has a distinctive global view, taking a critical look at prosperity from a range of fields, including business, technology and entrepreneurship to policy, law and the environment.
Set up to address the urgent need for leaders who can come up with a fresh approach to prosperity 鈥� one that that balances wealth with social and environmental sustainability 鈥� the MSc has a collective, knowledge-sharing ethos.
High-profile academics and partners, alongside a multidisciplinary student body bring significant expertise and experience to the course, and students are trained to build on successes to problems already achieved around the world.
The course is led by Dr Tuukka Toivonen, Senior Lecturer in Social & Economic Innovation, and Dr Matthew Davies, Lecturer in African Studies. It includes modules on entrepreneurship, the history and roots of current social and economic inequalities, and lectures on transitioning to renewable energy systems, sustainable transport and transparent financial services.
