Summary

In an increasingly globalised world, a solid understanding of how economic systems, markets and organisations work can set you apart as a knowledgeable leader in a variety of industries. An Economics BSc(Hons) degree can take you far, setting you up for many potentially rewarding and exciting careers in the private and public sectors, including stockbroker, data analyst, investment analyst, or economist.

This course aims to equip graduates with integral skills and knowledge of Economics. You’ll learn about the science of decision making, as well as how resources are allocated to meet the needs of the population. You’ll be prepared to face and address pressing global problems, such as poverty, unemployment, inequality, and pollution.

Why study Economics BSc(Hons)

You can look forward to a high-quality education here, as Economics at Huddersfield is top in Yorkshire for learning experience, learning opportunities, academic support and more (National Student Survey 2023). You’ll also be studying at an AACSB International-accredited Business School. Globally, fewer than six per cent of institutions offering business degrees achieve this accreditation.

On campus, you’ll study a wide range of subjects including:

  • microeconomics and macroeconomics
  • mathematics and statistics for social sciences
  • econometrics

You’ll also learn how to use industry-standard databases and software packages, such as Datastream, Stata, R and Eviews.

Away from campus, you’ll gain relevant real-world experience. After the second year of the course, you’ll put your knowledge and skills to the test in an optional 48-week work placement in your area of interest, in the UK or abroad, utilising our links with local, national, and international companies throughout many industries.

This course will prepare you for a variety of potentially exciting careers in a range of fields in the industry. You could work as an auditor, commercial finance analyst or finance officer. You can even go on to work for non-profits, government agencies, banks or even insurance companies.
