    Bachelor's degree

    Cardiff (Wales)

Understanding the theoretical aspects of Economics allows students to engage with a number of problems and policy issues. Business Economics appeals to those who wish to specialise in the application of economic theory to business decision making, matching a good knowledge of economic principles to an awareness of their uses and limitations in a business context. The Business Economics degree at Cardiff aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice in the areas of economics directly relevant to business.
