IGIDR offers two flagship postgraduate and doctoral academic programmes designed to build strong analytical, quantitative, and research capabilities in development economics and allied areas. The M.Sc programme provides rigorous training in economic theory, econometrics, and applied policy analysis, preparing students for careers in research, public policy, finance, and the development sector. The Ph.D programme offers advanced, research-intensive training with interdisciplinary opportunities across economics, environment, energy, and development studies. Through coursework, seminars, and supervised research, Ph.D scholars engage in high-quality, policy-relevant research contributing to national and global development discourse. Both programmes emphasize academic excellence, empirical rigour, and a vibrant research environment supported by IGIDR’s expert faculty and modern infrastructure.
