Course summary


Studying Economics at Birmingham, you will work alongside experts in fields such as environment, energy, charity, philanthropy, public policy, society and finance to develop the skills required to make informed, responsible decisions and to positively impact society in a diverse range of careers.

Every decision we make, as individuals and right up to the level of global business and government, is based on scarcity and choice. The world has limited resources – and they’re becoming more limited every day. ‘Responsible’ means making sure those resources are used strategically and fairly to make people and society as a whole better off.
