Students will study Economics, Mathematics and Statistics, providing them with a solid foundation in all three subjects. They will also be given the opportunity to specialize in the latter stages of their degree, for example, in applied economics, advanced statistics, mathematical modelling of complex processes, or developing “Big Data” skills.

Through their study, students will develop skills in data analysis, and be supported in the development of their analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as in the application of these skills to understanding real economic issues. The degree will provide a structured approach to developing skills of analysis, problem design and resolution using mathematics, economic theory, data analysis and statistical methods.

The skills and problem-solving abilities students acquire in this degree are highly prized in a range of professions, both private and public sectors, including banking, finance, accounting, management consultancy, broadcasting, business, journalism, teaching and communications.
