BSC ECONOMICS

---|---|
Are you an analytical person with a passion to tackle pressing socioeconomic challenges such as poverty, unemployment, financial instability, gender and racial inequality and the effects of climate change? As a BSc Economics student, you will learn to take a scientific evidence-based approach to understand, critique and create policies to combat economic and social problems. Employers in all sectors from government to financial services have a growing need for economists who can analyse and interpret data. This requires a strong grounding in analytical and quantitative methods beyond the economics core of the MH101 BA degree subject. With an emphasis on independent research, the programme is designed to allow you to flourish based on your individual curiosity and strengths. From BSc Economics, you can automatically continue with the MSc Economics Programme should you perform at the required level i.e. 55% overall in your degree. Why choose this degree?
