The ANU brings its expertise in economics and business to degrees in the areas of trade and international economic relations.  Postgraduate degrees in these areas are based on firm economic foundations to provide students with the basis for careers in business, government and NGOs.  The Master of International Trade and Economic Relations is designed to equip students with theoretical understanding and technical skills that can be applied in specific settings or that can be used to analyse economic data and to critically evaluate applied research in the area.  The Graduate Diploma in International Trade and Economic Relations provides an entry pathway for students who do not have a strong economics background.

All graduate coursework for domestic students in the ANU College of Business and Economics is offered under Domestic Tuition Fee places. Australian citizens may defer the payment of their fees using FEE-HELP, however should be aware that the programs are not eligible for Commonwealth Supported Places and HECS-HELP. Information on FEE-HELP and eligibility requirements is available from http://www.goingtouni.gov.au/
