Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Economics and Psychology (KL08)

This is an exciting time to study Economics: great ideological debates, policy decisions and technological changes are taking place that impact people lives, ranging from the direction of globalization and international trade and trade restrictions, to trends in economic inequality, the environment and climate change, the gender pay-gap, migration flows, economic integration, financial crises, and the challenges posed by the recent Covid-19 crisis.

Liverpool Hope University's Economics program will delve in to an in-depth study of real economic issues like the above, based on a solid foundation of an eclectic economic theory, and an understanding of how economic policy is formulated. This will enable students to gain the analytical and critical evaluation skills needed to recognize how national and global issues affect a society’s welfare.

Through Liverpool Hope's teaching of Psychology, they strive to enable their students to grow into constructive citizens who are curious about people, and motivated to make a positive difference to the lives of others. Beyond classroom learning, there are opportunities to enrich the students' chosen program of study in a way that will help them in developing their psychological thinking. They include going on a placement year, working as a research assistant in a laboratory, travelling to another country as part of Global Hope, or studying abroad.
