This
aim of this degree is not only to cover the analysis of a certain set of
topics but to teach an approach to a logical analysis of social and individual
decision-making. It is centred around a core of economic theory and the
tools it requires, with opportunities for specialisations in particular
applications in the 'optional units'.
'Economics' does not have just one definition. It covers a wide range of topics, such as: how an individual or household chooses its pattern of consumption and saving, how businesses set their prices, how consumers and firms interact so as to determine the overall output and price of a product, the role of government in regulating economic activity, the determination of aggregate output, unemployment and inflation, the balance of payments and exchange rates. This degree would be of most value to you for employment as a professional economist in industry, finance or the civil service, but it also valued by employers for other occupations where a demonstrated ability for logical quantitative reasoning is desired (e.g. accountancy, banking or general managerial posts).
