Course Description
Combine economics with management to develop an understanding of key business concepts. On this course you’ll learn how organisations are managed, the strategies used to compete for customers and the importance of economics in achieving an organisation’s objectives.
Alongside the fundamental theories and techniques of economics, you’ll study complementary modules in finance, business, accounting and management. Tailoring your degree in this way helps build the knowledge and skills to support a career in your area of interest, whether that’s in the field of economics, consultancy or a broader business management role.
Central to the course is the real-world application of economics and management. The curriculum includes lectures from expert speakers and case studies where you will have a chance to investigate a range of contemporary economics issues to develop your analytical, numerical and problem-solving skills.
The first year provides a foundation in economic principles and general management studies. In subsequent years you will further develop your understanding of core areas of economics and management such as macroeconomics, microeconomics, innovation, operations and data analysis.
You have the option to complete the course in three years, add a placement year or spend a year abroad. The flexible structure coupled with the varied selection of optional modules across all years allow you to tailor your studies to your interests and aspirations.
Accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
