1. ISI - Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata & Delhi
2. DSE - Delhi School of Economics
3. IGIDR - Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research, Mumbai
4. JNU - Javaharlal Nehru University, Delhi
5. MSE - Madras School of Economics
These are the superb economics institutes in India. However, other users are invited to add any missing names.
One more thing .... Written tests of ISI and IGIDR are on the same day (7th May) .... so one has to make a choice. Timings are also same as ISI has 2 papers ... on in forenoon and the other in afternoon. IGIDR's test is objective only and tests English and Maths whereas the ISI's test is both objective and subjective and tests Maths and Economics. Here also users are invited to correct any incorrect info.
Thanks patel. It is realy helpful to me. can any one tell me what preparation is requird for IGIDR entrance? any currant students in pg.please help

Then there is Jamia Milia Uni....Which is more popular for its Post grad in Mass Com...But even the Eco thing is fast catching up.
Depends why you want to do an M.A. is it to do Corporate R&D; or some prof. job?In the first case Ignore JNU.....
Since DSE folks have good links with Junta in amreecan univ.s you could geta good reference for PhD.+Foundation Courses.....
Man the people graduating from schools are so lucky BA+MA Eco ~5 years by IITs....
the test of IGIDR is much easier and placements are excellent. the average salary was 6 lakhs per annum last year and the highest was 9 lacs per annum. so better go for IGIDR

Good to see ppl providing their views ....
No views about MSE and ISI ??
Hi,
Madras school of economics is a fine institute. One of my friends is studying there and he has explained me abt the placement process, as well as the faculty etc. The faculty there consists of many high-profile people, and the placement is also quite good.

Well an MA in Econ and an MBA in Finance is significantly different.
And to go for financial consultancy an MBA will help not an MA because MA in Econ teaches hardcore Economics mainly mathematical explanations of the economic theories and so on.
Alex
P.S I have found that the entrance test for ISI is difficult to crack for Econ students but is easier for those who have taken math at the undergrad.
IGIDR is a good choice.
For further studies in Econ, i would rate DSE as first, then IGIDR and JNU.
MSE is ok, but lesser that the other institutes if you want to go further in Econ because MSE does not offer a varied selection of math papers which is extremely essential to take up a doctorate in econ.

How is IGNOU as an option for pusuing M.A. Economics?
Hello friends,
I'm facing a similar situation. Can any one suggest a couple of institutes/colleges in India that offer M.A.Economics via distance education. I tried googling a few, but got a few unsatisfactory findings. Any guidance in the right direction will be of great help, friends!
Looking forward to your suggestions.
Thanks much in advance!

bsamridhi SaysHow is IGNOU as an option for pusuing M.A. Economics?
IGNOU is a good option if you want to do the course through Distance Learning mode. It won't help in getting jobs as in provide assistance for placements.
