Overview

Study economics, whilst taking a range of modules in accountancy, business and management. Our BSc Economics with Accountancy degree, offered in conjunction with Norwich Business School, is an excellent choice if you are seeking a thorough grounding in economic analysis, with an additional focus on accounting, business management, financial markets and corporate finance. You’ll gain a useful head-start whether your future lies in entrepreneurship, consultancy or management. By combining BSc Economics with Accountancy with a year abroad, you'll spend a year at one of our many partner universities across the world. This is your chance to study while immersed in a completely different culture – giving you the academic and personal experience of a lifetime.

About This Course

On this course, you'll combine a rigorous training in economics with the opportunity to learn about accountancy, finance and management. You'll study microeconomics, macroeconomics, economic modelling and statistics, and you'll also choose from modules such as financial accounting, management accounting, and business and company law. You may then choose to deepen your knowledge in areas such as taxation, competition and consumer policy, or to broaden your knowledge of economics generally by choosing from the full suite of modules on offer in the School of Economics. You’ll be based in the School of Economics, and you’ll receive training also in the Norwich Business School. Through the combined expertise of the School of Economics and the Norwich Business School, you’ll learn everything you need to know for a broad range of careers in finance, consultancy and management. The School of Economics is globally respected, especially for its pioneering and world-leading work in behavioural economics. Our active research areas also include macroeconomics, competition economics, environmental policy, conflict theory, finance, and labour market studies in education, family and welfare. You’ll be joining a vibrant and diverse community. Our student-led Economics Society is the perfect place to network and socialise with fellow students with shared interests. The Norwich Economic Papers, run by a Student Editorial Board, and the ECO Blog are outlets within which you can publish your work. Our within-school internships enable you to participate directly in frontier research. And our Staff Student Liaison Committee gives you a say in the future direction and every day running of the school.
