Course Overview
Gain the analytical toolkit to understand the economic forces shaping modern business. This degree focuses on how economic principles are practically applied within organisations and the wider commercial world.
Develop expertise in assessing market dynamics and strategic decision making, with integrated marketing focus. Learn marketing’s role in multi-channel environments and how it fits within organisational strategy. Special emphasis on evaluating economic factors in target markets, particularly emerging economies.
The key difference lies in the first two years. Choose the BSc for stronger focus on quantitative, analytical subjects. The MA pathway offers more arts and social science based subjects initially.
This programme prepares you for roles in marketing, business analysis, consultancy or policy, equipped to understand how economics drives business decisions.
