• Objectives
  On this programme, you will take core modules in Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Business Economics and Introductory Econometrics and will choose from a range of optional modules. In the later stages of the degree, you will also take compulsory modules in Mathematical Economics and Applied Econometrics, both of which cover more technical and advanced material. As an alternative to one of the optional modules, you may write a dissertation of 6,000 - 8,000 words.
• Entry requirements
  There are different entry qualifications for each programme. Some programmes require you to have a certain amount of knowledge in a subject before you begin the degree programme – this is called a ‘subject requirement’. Other programmes do not have any specific subject requirements. All programmes will, however, expect you to have reached a certain standard in your education and will ask you to achieve certain grades in your examinations. Most programmes have a standard offer so that you know in advance what you are likely to need. Please note that even if you have the minimum entry qualifications, you are not necessarily guaranteed a place on the degree programme.
