This degree combines economic theory with state-of-the-art analytical techniques in data science and machine learning. You’ll learn to tackle economic problems through new tools in data science while developing practical experience in programming. The BSc (Hons) in Economics with Data Science gives you the chance to explore the connection between economics and computing in new and innovative ways, bridging the gap between theory and data. It distinguishes itself from existing programs through:Its focus on cutting-edge computational methods related to data analysis.Immersing you in the rapid developments in artificial intelligence and machine learning. These discoveries profoundly influence academic research, businesses and public organisations.Exploring computational thinking and data-driven methods in economic analysis, and demonstrating how these are becoming indispensable in an increasingly digital and connected world.Giving you the opportunity to study modules from our Department of Computing to give you a highly relevant context, equipping you with essential computing skills to solve economic problems.You'll gain a solid understanding of the theoretical foundations of economics. What's more, you'll learn interdisciplinary tools, and skills to work with complex, high-dimensional datasets.Length3 years full-time
