The Economics & Policy track aims to train Health Policy Analysts educated in Economics and Quantitative Methods. The main educational goal is to enable students to produce and critically assess empirical evidence informing the design, implementation and evaluation of alternative courses of action, both at a micro or macro level, in public and private realms.

Economics helps to structure answers to real-world questions. Once equipped with structured answers a Policy Analyst can resort to measurement and empiricism to test and possibly find support to one out of several alternative explanations. By combining Economics and Quantitative Methods, students will be able to provide fundamental insights to inform rational decision making and policy development both in public, and in private realms.

Economics, the science which studies human behaviour as a relationship between desired ends and scarce means which have alternative uses, helps in structuring answers to questions like:

Shall we reimburse doctors with fee-for-service or should we salary them?

Are individuals able to make informed and rational choices regarding their health?

How to endure health services with good quality?

How to spur research & development of a Covid vaccine and make it available for all?

Should we concentrate hospital production into a few, big hospitals or should we decentralize it to preserve patients’ accessibility?

Should healthcare insurance be funded by taxation?
