Bachelor of Science - Economics and Mathematics (Including Placement Year) (L1G2)

On this course, students investigate topics in mathematics, and mathematical applications in economics. Mathematics develops strong problem solving skills that will complement the economics side of their course and allow students to understand the more complex elements of the subject, so that they can examine the decisions of individuals, the strategies of firms and the policies of individuals. Students will explore topics including:

• Microeconomics (economics of producers and consumers) • Macroeconomics (economics of nations) • Probability and applied statistics • Finance and big data • Calculus

The Department of Mathematical Sciences is genuinely innovative and student-focused. Its research groups are working on a broad range of collaborative areas tackling real-world issues.
