Then you build your expertise by choosing from a range of specialist options including data coding and visualisation, climate change economics, education economics, financial economics and development economics. You will gain important quantitative skills for policy analysis.From psychology to law and modern languages, you take electives from other subjects to open your mind to other disciplines and tailor your degree to your interests. You can also broaden your experience further with an option to apply for a professional placement year.
