Course overview

Immerse yourself in the exciting and dynamic study of Economics and develop the skills to explore a multitude of issues in modern life. Our Economics program attracts a diverse cohort of students each with their own unique interests and career aspirations. This degree will provide you with training in the theoretical and applied aspects of economics. Studying the behaviour of individuals, businesses, governments, and nations as they interact in the global environment, you will develop analytical skills that allow you to understand the world on a deeper level. Economics is fundamentally about developing problem-solving and decision-making skills that are applicable in numerous contexts. While economics studies financial and business decisions, it also enables you to understand complex challenges in areas such as the environment, health, education, poverty, economic development, and public policy. Economics teaches you how to use data to understand the modern world, a skill that is highly prized by both business and government.

The Bachelor of Economics allows you to combine the study of economics with your choice of a broad range of subject areas, including business, STEM, the humanities, and social sciences.
