Economics and Statistics

If you’re looking to diversify without spreading yourself too thin, this degree offers the ideal middle ground. The degree combines an in-depth study of economics and econometrics with a solid grounding in mathematical and statistical methods. This is an ideal choice for candidates considering a career in industry, business or finance.

This BSc is a joint degree programme taught in conjunction with the Department of Economics. A first-year combination of statistics, economics and mathematics is followed by a roughly equal mix of statistics and economics modules (including econometrics) over years two and three. In the third year in particular, there is considerable flexibility in the range of options available in both economics and statistics.
