Economics is built on some simple, yet important, idea known as threshold concepts. These apply to decisions taken every day by individuals, firms and governments. Some of these decisions can have very important effects for all of us.
This course provides a solid grounding in the threshold concepts underpinning economic analysis, using its distinctive perspectives to critically analyse business decision-masking. You will learn about the industry and regulatory contexts surrounding decisions in an international setting as well as develop crucial employment skills.
This flexible course provides a solid grounding in the main elements of economic analysis, while emphasising their application to public and private organisations, as well as to question policy.
As an Economics student you’ll have access to our unique Trading Room facility. With 12 double-screen workstations, the room gives you a simulated experience of working in the fast-moving world of shares and trading. You can access sophisticated analysis tools and data on worldwide financial markets.
This course can be studied over three years full-time or four years with a placement, and offers all students the opportunity to gain some industry experience or travel overseas to study abroad in one of our partner universities with our unique opportunities scheme.
