With global economics rarely out of the news, this challenging and rewarding degree provides a thorough grounding in the range of skills required by the modern economist. Through studying a mix of theoretical and applied modules, you’ll be trained to think like an economist and to apply rigorous, tried and tested techniques that give insight and guidance to government and business. You can take a number of optional modules in the fields of development economics, public sector economics and international financial economics. You can choose to enter either our BA (Hons) Economics or our BSc (Hons) Economics programme, however, transfer between the two is still possible at the end of a common first year.
