Interested in finding out more about the national economy and the economic decisions made by organisations? Enjoy testing theories, identifying patterns and finding solutions?
Economies across the world are changing at a rapid rate. This course will teach you the methods used for analysing economic data and equip you with the mathematical and statistical skills to advise businesses on economic policies, predict patterns of behaviour and reduce the risks involved in financial decision making.
Course content
By combining the study of economics with the mathematical and statistically focused area of econometrics, you will learn about current issues in modern-day economic forecasting and analysis while developing the analytical, problem-solving and quantitative skills to understand and interpret economic indicators.
The first year of our economics courses introduce the key areas that underpin the rest of the course. Years 2 and 3 consolidate and expand upon this knowledge via a series of core and option study modules which have been developed to give you a thorough understanding of the subject and enable you to tailor the degree to fit your academic and career interests.
Teaching and assessment
You’ll study and learn with academics who are active researchers, experts in their field and have a passion for their subjects. Our approach to teaching will provide you with the knowledge, opportunities, and support you need to grow and succeed in a global workplace.
Careers and skills
This flexible course has been developed to provide you with the business skills to specialise in economic forecasting and statistical analysis as well as branching out into the wider world of economics. So whether you’re looking for a career in banking, finance, research or management consultancy, career prospects for graduates are excellent.
Following graduation around a third of our students go on to postgraduate study. Many progress to an MSc here at York. The Department of Economics has one of the largest graduate schools in the country for training and research.
