GBAs a graduate student studying economics, I found the Professional Certificate in Development Economics to be an excellent supplement to my studies. The course was well-structured and allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of development economics concepts and practical applications. I particularly appreciated the real-world case studies which helped me see the relevance of the theories I've been learning. My only suggestion for improvement would be to include more interactive elements, such as discussion forums or group projects, to facilitate greater engagement among students.
