Why this course?

Following the recent global economic crisis, economics is more important and relevant than ever. Decisions on money, banking, interest rates, taxation and government spending affect us all, with global consequences.

Economics aims to understand the activities of the different agents in the economy – consumers, producers and the government – and how they all fit together.

Our degree will give you the ability to explain complex data in simple terms to different audiences. Youll also develop excellent mathematical, statistical and problem-solving skills.

In Business Law, youll study commercial law and business legal regulations. These include company law, competition law and human rights law.

Business Law can only be studied as a second subject as a joint Honours option.

Assessment

The majority of classes involve a final unseen exam which is normally at the end of the semester. This is usually supplemented by individual and/or group coursework.

Youll normally have one opportunity to be re-assessed for a failed class. For exams, this usually takes place during the summer.

Careers

Our Economics graduates find work in accountancy and business services, retail and investment banking, insurance, government and industry. Job titles include economist, auditor, management accountant, business analyst, investment analyst, risk consultant and commercial manager.

Graduates who specialise in Business Law develop excellent research and analytical skills. Youll be able to interpret and explain complex information both verbally and in writing and have good commercial awareness.

You'll have the potential to work in government services, commerce and industry, banking and insurance, management and administration.

Some graduates go on to do an accelerated graduate LLB degree.
