Course summary
Improve your knowledge of global markets and economic theory, and sharpen your decision making skills – an Economics degree at Nottingham Business School is your gateway to a career in financial services, and a wide range of other opportunities.
The integrated foundation year will help you build essential skills and knowledge, preparing you for the core concepts of modern economics. Economics is based on key threshold concepts that shape everyday decisions made by individuals, businesses, and governments. These decisions can have far-reaching effects, such as those made by financial institutions in 2008, which led to the deepest UK recession since the war.
Youll study the key concepts of modern economics, learning how these principles are applied by individuals, businesses and governments. Youll work with professionals and industry experts and test your knowledge in a range of real-world business environments.
As an Economics student youll 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.

SPE is the leading organisation serving professional economists in the UK and has more than 600 members, drawn from all areas of the profession including finance and commerce, industry, government departments, private sector consultants, business schools and universities.
