Amna graduated from Oxford in 2014. Prior to her MSc she received an honours degree in Economics and Engineering from Smith College in the US. Since graduating in 2011, she has spent time teaching Mathematics and Economics in Islamabad, Pakistan and has worked as an analyst for Cornerstone Research, an economic consulting firm in Boston, US. Amna firmly believes that the MSc combined with the Weidenfeld Scholarship and Leadership Programme will provide her with the necessary skills to return to Pakistan and assume a leadership position in the field of economics.
