Course summary

By tightly integrating the study of economics and statistics, our BSc Mathematical Economics and Statistics programme meets the increasing demand from industry, the professions and public bodies for informed and talented graduates who can apply skill and imagination to real world problems.


Responsible for your learning

Economics is important, it means passing on our state-of-the-art knowledge to the next generation as part of our responsibility to the profession and to you. Our responsibility is to help teach you to communicate what you have learnt and how it can be applied - to prospective employers, to your parents, to all the people who benefit from the making of informed decisions. As a graduate you will emerge with an excellent, professional training in economics allied with advanced technical and quantitative skills that you can readily apply to a host of social science concepts and problems. This programme emphasises developments in modern economic and social theory and takes account of the growth of mathematical and statistical tools in the analysis of economic and social problems.

There are also modules in study skills to equip you for university-level work, and practical information technology courses to enable you to use our excellent computer-based facilities.You build on your first year with compulsory modules in Economics and Quantitative Methods. You are also introduced to econometrics 鈥� applying statistics to test and evaluate economic theories and policies. You pursue your own developing tastes and preferences by choosing an optional module from a list that includes Economic Development and Environmental Economics.You can apply for a placement year during your second year and undertake a year-long placement during your third year.
