Course programme
Our three-year Politics and Economics degree programme has a collaborative approach with a wide range of integrated contemporary modules. There is a compulsory core, built around modules from the School of Economics and the School of Political Social and International Studies. This is complemented by a broad range of modules enabling you to direct your own learning across the two disciplines.
Year 1In your first year you will study core modules in economics, allowing you to establish your understanding of macro and microeconomics. You will also be taught economic modelling and statistical techniques in the modules ‘Introductory Mathematics for Economists’ and ‘Introductory Statistics for Economists’.
Your study of politics will be founded in the module ‘Introduction to Contemporary Politics’, complemented by the choice of a further module from the School of Political, Social and International Studies.
Year 2You will continue to strengthen your understanding of the macro and micro economy, alongside learning about the collection and analysis of data. In ‘Introductory Econometrics’ you will build your statistical skills, with the option to apply them in the form of a practical project designed to answer a research question in the module ‘Econometrics Research Project’. This module is also designed to enhance the employability of our graduates.
Your study of economics will be complemented by a selection of modules from the School of Political, Social and International Studies.
Year 3In your third year you will choose modules from the School of Economics that allow to you further your study of economic theory and public policy. The remainder of your third year studies will be made up of modules from a broad curriculum of political disciplines, to which you will be able to apply learning from your study of economics.
