Economics and Econometrics at University of Bristol - UCAS

Course summary

Study the application of statistical methods to data to estimate economic models in this degree. This discipline, known as econometrics, is used by economists to test theories and analyse the impacts of policies and events on the health of the economy. This course combines the study of economics and econometrics with a wide range of optional units. Econometrics is a vital tool for economists because, unlike natural sciences where controlled experiments are used to determine the effect of one thing on another, it is impossible to hold the economy constant while tinkering with a single variable. Econometrics provides the scientific means to overcome this issue using empirical observations. Alongside your mandatory modules in econometrics and the research you will carry out in the applied economics dissertation, you will be able to choose topics that interest you from a wide range of optional modules within the School of Economics, the University of Bristol Business School and other parts of the University during your degree. Previous economics options have included: Behavioural Economics; Environmental Economics; Data Science; and Current Economic Problems.
