Course summary

Studying BA Economics will enable you to build a thorough understanding of current economic issues, with a strong application-focused approach to economics. This programme is suited to those who have not taken A- Level Mathematics as it is less mathematically intensive and offers a more applied alternative to our BSc Economics.

Introduction

BA Economics provides students a robust grounding in economic principles, progressing from theory to practical application. In your first year, you will establish a firm understanding of micro and macroeconomics, statistical and data analysis and mathematical tools needed for economic and business applications.

In your second year, you will build on these foundations with introductions to econometric modelling and big data analysis. Expect to explore contemporary economic themes, such as the economics of diversity and inclusion, behavioural economics and management economics.

In your final year, there is an emphasis on applied economics. Tailor your degree with a diverse range of optional modules alongside applied core modules focused on macroeconomic policy debates and industrial organisation. You will have the opportunity to explore specialised areas, such as Creative Sector Economics, Environmental Economics and Sustainability Policies, Behavioural Finance, Sports Economics, Derivative Securities and Health Economics.

Employability is embedded from first year. You will have the opportunity to apply your knowledge to real-world contexts and develop a strong understanding of economics relevance in today’s society. You’ll develop mastery of sought-after statistical and econometric modelling techniques, equipping you with valuable analytical skills demanded by employers, without becoming immersed in overly abstract theoretical constructs.
