This course will give you a comprehensive understanding of core business issues and the principles of how businesses operate and succeed, paired with economic analysis and economic policy. This three-year dual honours course combines a comprehensive understanding of core areas of business management, with economic analysis and economic policy. Your time will be divided between the Sheffield University Management School and the Department of Economics - gaining insights from both and providing you with an understanding of the fundamentals of both specialties.

You’ll also have the opportunity to tailor the degree to your own personal interests, with a selection of economics and business management modules to help you realise your ambitions. You can choose to delve into micro and macroeconomics, as well as international and labour economics. From day one, you’ll be supported by our expert teaching staff, developing an unparalleled knowledge of the subject at a theoretical level and learning to apply this to real-life case studies and project work, on your own and as part of a team.
