Course summary
Focusing on financial economics, you will combine core economic skills with current and fast-changing theories around financial markets. This degree starts on the same path as our Economics course. Following this BSc degree, you will have a stronger interest in science, and technical-based subjects. Economists examine how societies attempt to make the best use of their scarce resources so that they can advise governments, individuals, and companies on how to improve decisions and outcomes. Traditionally they have advised on investment, production, inflation, interest rates, and prices. Increasingly however economists also examine policies to:
- address climate change
- address inequality
- improve healthcare
