Global Prosperity MSc takes you to the heart of how to think about prosperity, offering a new approach to understanding and influencing the economies of the world and how they impact on people. The degree challenges current economic and social models that have generated both astonishing levels of wealth as well as deep social and ecological dilemmas. Preparing you for a career as a global leader in policy, entrepreneurship, the third-sector, academia and beyond, you will examine possible solutions to contemporary global challenges and explore how much-needed economic, social and political transformations can be enacted to deliver sustainable prosperity.
