For example, you'll learn how to use advanced linear algebra to analyse high-dimensional economic data or how to use the mathematical structure of complex networks to model strategic interactions.You'll benefit from teaching that's informed by the latest developments and cutting-edge research. Our research ranks in the top five amongst UK universities for economics and econometrics as well as for mathematics (REF 2021).

You'll also be able to tailor your degree to suit your interests and career ambitions with optional modules – exploring topics ranging from data science to behavioural economics, financial mathematics to machine learning, time series analysis to international trade, and more.The option to undertake a final year dissertation also gives you the opportunity to apply your knowledge and skills in a specialist area of economics, as you hone your research and analysis capabilities exploring a question of particular interest to you.By the end of the programme, you'll be well-prepared for a successful career.
