Course overview
Combine the power of economic theory with advanced mathematics to unlock a world of career opportunities. Students specialise by choosing from more than 60 mathematics and statistics courses. They gain the skills to tackle data-driven challenges in science, engineering, IT, business, and economics. In economics, they dive into business economics, environmental and resource economics. They also cover economic policy, econometrics, financial markets, and labour and health economics. Students can build a global perspective with studies in international trade, development, macroeconomics, and microeconomics. Students sharpen their quantitative, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills through industry placements or internships. Graduates with these skills are in demand. They find employment in business, finance, international development, health, HR, marketing, management, research, and emerging scientific industries. ds.
