Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Economics (L101)

Study BA Economics and learn to apply economic analysis to international problems. In this course students will explore and develop a deep understanding of the increasingly critical economic and related issues that dominate the news agenda and shape the world in which we live. Students will study practical issues in economics and explore the relationship between economics and society more widely.

This course places less emphasis on mathematical and statistical content, and instead students will focus on the relevance of these techniques to applied problems. Students will still learn necessary maths skills in their core modules with extensive support, should they need it.

Each year students will be able to choose from a wide range of specialist optional modules and tailor the degree to their own interests. These span a number of topics, including business, policy, economic history and even the economics of climate change. Students can also choose to do modules in other subjects such as history and politics, some of which cover topics and issues related to economics.
