Course overview

The economics and management approaches in this degree programme complement and enhance each other. Your studies in economics will consider the actions of economic agents (individuals, firms and governments), while your studies in management will show you the best way to organise and run a corporate enterprise, private or public, as viewed from within. How does the corporation choose prices, stock levels and marketing strategy? How does it organise its financial control procedures and deploy human resources? The programme also provides some exemptions from professional accounting examinations, and is taught jointly with the School of Management.

This degree provides an opportunity to focus on the application of both economic principles and management science in the context of business organisations. It is a particularly appropriate choice for those wishing to go on to a career in management.

The degree is taught in conjunction with the School of Management, and is administered by Economics.
