Hi there,

Economics is a discipline which again came into vogue after an economist became a successful prime minister of the country. Since then there have been many changes i the country with relation to economic policies and its implications on daily life of people and financial health of country as such. Traditionally Economics has been considered as a academic program and field of study with very limited career options in teaching, civil services and diplomacy.

But LPU has been successfully turning these into purely professional program with focus on employment pathways.

The LPU Economics programs are designed and delivered with an objective of overall development of students. The programs include:

Dissertations and Field Surveys: Students have opportunity to do class assignments or dissertations by applying various statistical techniques. Application oriented assignments and projects based upon databases like CAPITALINE, online library database PROQUEST and JSTOR are undertaken to sharpen research and analytical skills.
Industry Oriented Curriculum: The curriculum contains a good mixture of foundation, core, open/minor and pathway and specialization elective courses, thereby giving diverse exposure to the students.
Workshop courses: In addition to the regular course work , specially designed workshop courses like Workshop on data analysis using statistical softwares are offered to promote practical implication of various courses which train students for research and other fields .
Exposure to Data Analysis Software : The students as a part of curriculum are exposed to application of data analysis techniques using statistical software packages line SPSS, E-Views etc.
Pedagogy: Emphasis on case studies and c ase based teaching to develop skills in analytical thinking and reflective judgement by reading and discussing complex, real-life scenarios.

Alumni - Economics students who have studied at LPU are working in reputed institutions like PwC, Doordarshan Kendra Meghalaya, The Telegraph, Meghalaya Basin Development Authority and that too at a very good profile.
Co-Curricular & Extra Curricular Activities: Active participation of students in various clubs like Markophiles, Finance, Disha Club, Operations & IT, Strategy, Commerce, Economics, Society for Management Learning (Student Organization), etc. is encouraged to expose them to broader competitions. Events like Open House Discussions on contemporary issues, Business quiz, Group discussion on current affairs, etc. are organized by students and faculty managed clubs on regular basis.

The students are exposed to specialized electives like:

The main goal of the course is to introduce students to the basic concepts and tools of game theory and to apply these tools to real-life situations. Students will learn the fundamentals of game theory starting with basic terms such as strategies, payoffs, and information, and then will progress from the analysis of simple to more complex games.
