- participer à l’élaboration de nouveaux modes d’organisation d’entreprises, d’institutions ou de la société dans son ensemble ;
- acquérir une expérience internationale ;
- travailler en équipe avec des spécialistes d’autres disciplines.
Les atouts de la formation à l’UNamur

Échanges Erasmus
Profitez d’un séjour d’études d’un quadrimestre dans une université étrangère en Europe ou au-delà !
Un double diplôme
Pour les plus motivés, des programmes de double diplôme existent : vous passez un an à l’étranger dans une université prestigieuse et une année en Belgique, et vous obtenez les deux diplômes à la fin de vos deux années. Les doubles diplômes incluent notamment un master avec spécialisation en finance à Genève, un master en économie et politique à Milan, un master en économie européenne avec l’université de Maastricht, et de nombreux autres.

En choisissant la finalité approfondie, vous êtes formés à la recherche en économie et développer des innovations susceptibles d’éclairer les pratiques professionnelles.
Les options |
Grâce à la co-organisation avec l’UCLouvain, vous êtes diplômés des deux universités ! Ce master vous offre un choix inégalé d’options et de cours. À vous de choisir les domaines qui vous intéressent. Il est possible de suivre l’ensemble du programme à Namur, mais pour limiter les déplacements si vous choisissez une option à Louvain-la-Neuve (LLN), les 3 cours de chaque option sont donnés le même jour. Attention, quelle que soit l’option que vous sélectionnez, l’inscription à ce master se fait exclusivement à l’UCLouvain |
|
Vous complétez votre programme par un choix de cours en économétrie, langues et statistiques et vous réalisez un mémoire au service d’un projet, d’une entreprise ou d’une réflexion plus académique où vous exploitez les connaissances et compétences acquises. |

Les conditions d'admission à ce master codiplômé entre l'UNamur et l'UCLouvain sont décrites sur le site de l'UCLouvain.
________________________________________________________________________________
This programme is organised jointly with UCLouvain. To enrol for this programme, please exclusively contact UCLouvain.
Economists' professions
Between strategy, consulting and decision-making
As economists, you approach the complex realities of companies, institutions and society with nuance, and propose economic models adapted to their new organizational modes.
You cooperate with specialists from other disciplines and master multilingual communication and the international dimension of your projects.
Sensitive to the human and ethical dimensions of economic and social issues, you measure the interdependencies between the decisions of multiple players and develop opportunities for cooperation.
Some examples of professions
As recent graduates, you are often inserted into the management of a project. Working alone or as part of a team, you provide analyses or propose actions to achieve a given objective, within a set timeframe, with available resources or whose mobilization you organize. Your excellent analytical skills, your sense of communication, your knowledge of foreign languages, your international outlook and above all your desire to learn are
also important assets for many professions.
Finance
The financial sector (banking, insurance, administration...) is the leading employer for our graduates. Every company, from family-run SMEs to multinationals, needs reliable financial indicators to draw up realistic budgets and plans. The range of professions open to those with a passion for numbers is wide:
- Financial analysis: dissecting balance sheets, evaluating credits, advising investors;
- Customer advice in a credit organization;
- Internal auditing: verifying internal procedures for good governance and generating reliable financial statements;
- External auditing: verification of the quality and accuracy of financial information provided;
- risk management: the assessment and modeling of all risks likely to weigh on an organization;
- fund accounting: daily calculation of the inventory value of several investment funds;
- etc..
Commerce and distribution
Negotiating, obtaining the best prices, prospecting for new suppliers, monitoring the development of new packaging, optimizing the routing of products to customers... so many missions with responsibilities relating to sales and distribution. Alongside strictly sales-oriented companies such as supermarkets, industries and certain service companies also offer numerous career opportunities in purchasing, marketing and logistics.
Socio-economic analysis and political decision-making
In public administrations, in the non-profit world, in mutual societies or political parties, in trade union organizations, development aid agencies or business federations, etc., economics graduates observe and analyze the socio-economic situation. By issuing opinions and advice, they participate in the implementation and operation of policies and legislation.
Research and teaching
Some graduates pursue a research activity in Belgium or abroad. They complete a doctorate or take part in a research program. Several alumni pass on their knowledge in secondary, higher and continuing education.
Job search assistance
The Employment Unit supports final-year Master's students and recent graduates in their career paths, via a number of services: distribution of job and internship offers, orientation interviews, workshops on themes linked to professional integration, information and documentation on the world of work.
