Dean’s Message
Dear Students,
Welcome to the School of Economics, RV University.
As a part of a very vibrant campus at RV University, the School of Economics offers a holistic education that creates critical thinkers with strong disciplinary understanding, broad perspective of issues gained through multiple lenses, and hand-on activities. As we launch our B.Sc (Hons.) and M.Sc programmes in Economics, we are excited to offer students a specialization in Data Sciences, Development Studies, Finance or Public Policy. Students are free to choose courses from a variety of courses within and more than 20+ courses outside of their disciplinary boundaries, and specialise in areas of their choice.
Cognizant of India’s socio-economic position globally, the School of Economics stimulates an environment where students inquire into the real issues of development and gain insights through research, projects and self-study to stimulate their critical and analytical abilities to become independent thinkers and practitioners. With regular internship and capstone projects, as well as research dissertations, our students get sound training to face placement interviews or present their research at national and international conferences.
Our team of experienced faculty at the School look forward to interacting with you and seeing you graduate as young economists who are ready to take on challenges and solve real problems in the real world. Come, let us change the world!
