Course programme
BA (HONS) in Economics
Mode: full-time
A key aim of the program is to create in students a sense of awareness of economic issues that have both national and international importance. Another feature of the degree is to provide students with an opportunity to engage in a major individual research project. The senior project, normally around 8-10,000 words in length, provides a solid base for gaining research experience in economics. Upper division courses encourage the study of regional and international topics.
