Master of Economics 选课攻略 & 学分概况
Master of Economics (MoE) 仅有三个专业方向,分别为:
Economics Specialisation
Econometrics Specialisation
Financial Economics Specialisation这篇文章针对MoE的学分机制,给大家提供选课建议。目标是:不仅教你怎么选课,还要教你为什么这么选课。看完这篇文章,你能明白以下几个问题:
A. MoE四个学期如何选课
B. MoE三个方向有何区别
C. MoE可以选几个方向
D. MoE与MoC的Econ方向有何区别从图中可以看到,MoE的毕业要求是96学分,而悉尼大学一门课的学分为6 points,因此毕业需要完成16门课(包含已免的课)。96个学分当中分成不同类别,各类别要求的学分不尽相同。下面我按照图片上的顺序一个个为你们讲解:
a) a minimum of 24 credit points of foundation units of study
Foundation为MoE的必须要完成的基础课 (无论选哪个方向), 有24个学分要求,也就是四门课。一般来讲,必须要先学完这四门基础课才能选后面几个学期的高阶课程 (部分课程例外)。因此我们比较推荐MoE的学生在第一学期完成至少四门基础课。基础课有且仅有四门可以选,如图所示:
Foundation课程
课程代码课程名称ECMT5001Principles of EconometricsECON5001Microeconomic TheoryECON5002Macroeconomic TheoryECON5005Quantitative Tools for Economicsb) a minimum of 24 credit points of core units of study
Core units是MoE中必须要完成的24个学分或四门课,由于Core是Foundation课程的升级版,大部分Core units对Foundation有前置课程要求 (如图所示)。因此比较建议在第二学期完成部分Core的课程。

需要修满42个学分的选修课,那具体有哪些选修课呢,我们接着往下看。d) at least one specialisation
文章开头提过MoE共有三个专业方向可以选,每个方向下都有相应的Elective (选修课),并且每个方向对选修课学分要求都不一样。下面我们来看看每个专业方向的选修课的具体要求:
Economics Specialisation
Economics Specialisation有12学分compulsory课程和6学分的elective课程要求。因此,如果选择这个专业方向的学生除了完成compulsory课程ECON6001和ECON6002之外,只要完成以下表格中的一门选修课即可满足这个专业方向的学分要求:

Econometrics Specialisation 有6学分的compulsory课程和12学分的elective课程要求。因此,如果选择这个专业方向的学生除了完成ECMT6002外,只要完成以下表格中的两门选修课即可满足这个专业方向的学分要求:

Financial Economics Specialisation 学分要求类别比较多,分别为6学分的前置课程,12学分的compulsory课程和6学分的elective课程。表格中具体列出各类学分对应的课程:

Capstone为最后MoE最后一学期学的课,可以理解为毕业前的归纳总结课程,有且仅有一门:ECON7030 Economics Research Project选课总结

由于MoE的课程与MoC的ECON方向和FINC方向会有重叠,很多同学在选课的时候经常会对二者的区别感到困惑,下面为大家简单分析一下。
1.MOE vs. MOC-ECON 方向对比
MoC下的Econ仅需完成该专业方向下的一门Foundation (ECON5040), 以及四门ECON方向的选修即可。
MOC-Econ选修课如图所示:
MOC-ECON Elective
课程代码课程名称ECON5002Macroeconomic TheoryECON5006Economics of Law and Public PolicyECON5007The Economics of Financial MarketsECON5008Behavioural EconomicsECON5026Strategic Business RelationshipsECON5050Communicating EconomicsECON6008International Money and FinanceECON6016Trade and DevelopmentECON6018Environmental EconomicsECON6024Private EquityECON6029Health Economics and Policy EvaluationECON6035Global Economic History for Business
从图中可以看到,MOC下的Econ对学生的要求没有MOE高,MoE要求学生完成更多关于Econ方向的课程。- MOE vs. MOC - Finance 方向对比
MoC的Finance方向对Finance的课程要求会更多, 除了Foundation Finc5001之外,还需要选四门Finance选修课。MoE的Finance方向则只要求完成一门Finc课程。
Q & A
MOE下的三个专业方向都可以选吗?
可以,只要能满足每个专业方向的学分要求,无论选几个方向都行。我选一个专业方向的话,凑不满96个总学分,可以多选几门这个专业方向的选修吗?
可以,每个专业方向下对选修课的要求仅为最低学分要求,可以超过。 - MOE vs. MOC - Finance 方向对比
