Our Bachelor of Economics will give you a comprehensive and analytical understanding of economics.

Develop essential communication and analytical skills to inform decision-making and policy development. Your studies will give you a deep understanding of microeconomics - examining economics from an individual and business perspective. Explore macroeconomics, looking at large-scale factors, such as national income, employment and international trade. Learn about econometrics, where you'll use your analytical skills to understand economic data and test theories. You'll also complete elective courses on a wide range of economics topics - from environment and development economics to using big data to solve economic and social problems. Undertake an internship or career development opportunity in your final year to prepare you for the workforce. Graduate ready for a career in the private sector, not-for-profit organisations or in government.
