Economics and Mathematics at Lancaster University - UCAS

Course summary

BSc Economics and Mathematics focuses on the mathematical and statistical methods employed in Economics, alongside studies in mathematics theory. Whether your goal is to use Economics in Finance or Policy, this programme is flexible enough to allow you to pursue either. Programme overview As a student who is comfortable and fluent in mathematics, BSc Economics and Mathematics provides you with the analytic skills and intellectual toolbox to help answer some of the most pressing economics questions. You will learn how to interpret data, understand (and quantify) the decisions made by individuals, organisations, and governments and evaluate economic policies. You will cover the fundamentals of Economic theory and practice, and as your degree progresses and you discover more about both the subject and about yourself, you have the opportunity to flex this programme in ways that speak to your changing interests and strengths. This might lead you to choose modules in:

  • International Trade
  • Environmental Economics
  • Health Economics
  • Behavioural Economics
Amongst many other specialisations. This leads to a degree unique to you, where you have played a major part in building the degree you want. Alongside your Economics studies, you will study the principles, methods and concepts of Mathematics. Modules cover a wide range of topics from calculus, probability and statistics to logic, proofs and theorems. This programme uses your mathematical skills and knowledge to explore the core principles of macro- and micro-economics and game theory amongst other areas of the discipline. What separates Lancaster from the crowd is the flexible nature of our Economics degree programmes. In your third year, you can choose a large number of your modules, focussing on your areas of interest to build a degree unique to you. You do not need an A level in Economics to enrol in this course. Our Economics and Finance degrees are highly valued by employers. Graduates from this programme work as economists in the public sector and in academia, but also in banking, professional services, International business and international organisations.
