Hi Guys, i need your opinion about my essay for Australia Awards Scholarship
I am applying to the Master of Economic Policy (MECPO) with a focus on Industrial Economics because I believe that comprehensive economic policy is the key factor to national economic recovery due to covid 19. In *Country*, Industry contributes approximately 38.9% of GDP and employed 22.7% of the labor force in 2020. As a candidate for Policy Analyst at the Ministry of Industry (MOI). I want to contribute to create policies and evaluate existing policies that will have a multiplier effect as a response to support economic recovery.
At the MOI, if I wanted to develop my career, I had to choose a functional official position. one of the positions available is a policy analyst. I want to prepare myself as an effective policy analyst in industrial economics. Since 2018, I saw colleagues on my team who experts on technical and engineering issues but lack economic core skills. I am interested in filling that void and becoming an industrial policymaker who understands the direct positive impact on national economic recovery due to covid 19.
I have done research that offers master's programs in economic public policy. There are only two universities, the Australian National University (ANU) with a MECPO and the University of Queensland (UQ) with a Master of Economic and Public Policy (MEconPP).
MECPO program at ANU is well known as the best in APAC. I am interested in their program outcome which is able to analyze the economic effects of policy changes and to communicate them as a professional economist in business or government. Moreover, they offer an "Industrial Organisation" course which will be introducing the theory of the firms, imperfect competition, and other strategic behaviours. On the other hand, MEconPP program at UQ will be focused on economic analytical tools needed to design and evaluate public policies. I am interested in their outcome that understanding how government intervention affects the economy. it is closely related to my professional goals.
