About the course

Combine economics with management to develop the technical and analytical skills to thrive in the world of business. 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. The knowledge and skills you will gain in this course will suit any career in your area of interest, whether that’s in the field of economics, consultancy or management.

　　Central to the course is the real-world application of both economics and management. The curriculum includes lectures from leaders in their field as well as case studies where you will have a chance to investigate a range of contemporary issues to develop your numerical and problem-solving skills. Studying core modules in economics gives you a solid grounding in macroeconomics, microeconomics and econometrics: an essential toolkit that any professional economist must have. Core modules in management cover topics such as organizational behavior, leadership as well as entrepreneurship. We also offer a wide range of optional modules across all years allowing you to tailor your studies to your interests and career aspirations.

　　Students on the BA Economics with Management can apply to be transferred onto either the ‘with Year Abroad’ or ‘with Placement’ pathway during the second year. This will extend your degree from three years to four years. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
