BSc (Hons) Economics

... United Kingdom
... Nottingham Trent University

Course Overview

Economics is built on some simple, yet important, ideas 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 – for example, decisions made by financial institutions in 2008 which lasted for five quarters and resulted in the deepest UK recession since the war.

You’ll study the key concepts of modern economics, learning how these principles are applied by individuals, businesses, and governments. You’ll work with professionals and industry experts and test your knowledge in a range of real-world business environments.

As an Economics student, you’ll have access to our unique Business Lab facility. With 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.
