Brief Profile
Master’s Programme in Economics is a Study Program (PS) established by the Department of Economics, Universitas Brawijaya on July 4, 2001 through the approval of the Directorate General of Higher Education Number 2294/D/T/2001. PMIE has a curriculum as a plan and arrangement regarding the objectives, content, and teaching materials as a guide for organizing learning activities to achieve higher education goals. This curriculum is used as the direction and purpose of developing scientific dynamics and achieving the expected goals. This dynamic serves as the consensus for the development of society.
The current PMIE curriculum is a refinement of the 2017 curriculum, reviewed and improved in 2018. The curriculum contains a set of plans and arrangements regarding graduate learning outcomes, study materials, processes, and finally an assessment that will be used as a guide for the implementation of education in the Master’s Programme in Economics (PMIE) refers to the rules:

PMIE map out the compulsory and elective courses based on its ILOs, and they are systematically organized while taking into account the student’s learning load and the complexity and depth of the study material. Learning activities during lectures are designed based on problem-solving related to current issues and developments in science and technology. In general, PMIE curriculum structures offer 120 credits. Students can take at least 42 credits and a maximum of 45 credits to graduate. Compulsory courses aim to develop graduates’ main competencies (approximately 85.72% of total credits) while elective courses aim to strengthen core competencies (approximately 14.28% of total credits).
Students are declared passed if they have taken a minimum of 42 credits with the following details:
The complete PMIE curriculum structure is depicted in the roadmap below:
The type of credit system applied in PMIE is the Semester Credit Unit (SKS). If the SKS system is converted to the ECTS system, the credits that students of the PMIE Study Program must take are as follows:
Then the number of credits that PMIE students must take until graduation is 63 ECTS.

1. Assessment of Learning Outcomes Based on Grading System
The assessment procedure for the Master’s Programme in Economics in all courses (except Thesis) is based on the assessment procedure contained in the FEB UB manual. The assessment procedure uses a grading system consisting of:
Components |
Proportion |
Participation |
30% |
Task |
20% |
Mid-Semester Exam (UTS) |
25% |
Final Semester Exam (UAS) |
25% |
Note: *) The weighting of the assessment components is adjusted to the learning outcomes and assessment methods in each study program. Based on the weighting of these value components, the absolute value calculation is as follows:
NA: 0.30 P + 0.20 T + 0.25 UTS + 0.25 UAS
Absolute Score |

For post-graduate students, the minimum score needed to pass is B. For Thesis assessment, the final Thesis score is the weighted average of 4 activity stages, namely Proposal Exam, Field Research Activity, Research Result Seminar, and Thesis Exam with weights of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% respectively. The stages are shown in the table below:

2. Assessment of ILO Achievements
The following is the method of measuring or achieving the ILO’s Master of Economics Study Program:
a) Develop linkages between CLO and ILO Master of Economics Study Program
b) Develop CLO weighting based on assessment components (Participation, Assignments, UTS, UAS). The CLO weighting for each component of the course is arranged based on the relevance between the ILO/CLO and the assessment method
c) ILO and CLO achievement standards
