Course Overview

Our Economics degree offers a unique setting within an experienced Department of Social and Political Science. The course reinforces the vision of economics as a major social science that influences others, and the consideration of the different contexts and fields to that economics is related. In that sense, it distances its approach from the traditional focus on financial markets, to look into wider factors influencing the development of countries' economies.

You can benefit from a broad range of work experience opportunities, including our innovative Work Based Learning module which includes a placement, or a year abroad. In addition, you will have the opportunity for direct contact with potential employers. With economics, you can pursue a career in big data, finance, business, or consulting. Economists work across public and private sectors as well as work in the non-profit sector. The University’s careers service is also available to help develop and enhance employability prior to graduation.

Graduates in Economics gain a wide set of transferable skills, making them employable in a wide variety of sectors, public or private, national or international, including governmental institutions, research centers, financial institutions, consultancy companies, and health services. Roles include data analyst, consultant, economist, economic development officer, and statistician. Examples of jobs our graduates have taken include the Government Economic Service, treasurer for a charity, quality, and environment advisor, and project manager.
