Course summary
This course allows you to specialise in methodological modules with finance. You'll learn rigorous quantitative and analytical skills and apply this knowledge to your analysis of economics issues and policy.
Become a specialist in the application of rigorous quantitative and analytical skills to economic policy and practice, supported by expert staff from both fields.By approaching economics from a financial angle, you'll receive training in advanced methods, particularly mathematical and statistical. You'll be able to apply these methods, and your knowledge of finance, to a variety of economic problems.Right from the first year studying foundational economic principles and theories, you’ll begin building a toolkit of theoretical and quantitative skills. As you progress, you’ll have the option to specialise, deciding in the final year whether to incorporate applied modules alongside the methodological pathway.This degree comes with the opportunity to do a year-long, paid work placement, starting after your second year with some of the UK's top employers – these have included the Bank of England, HM Treasury, IBM and PwC.Whichever path you choose, you’ll graduate equipped with the practical skills you need to forge a career in the financial sector or as an economist in the public/private sector.
