Economics

Course summary

In a world of limited resources, how can we best solve society’s problems? This is the central problem of Economics, and it permeates so much of our lives. Economics can help us to answer questions such as: ‘Why are hospital waiting lists so long?’, ‘Is it right to limit the power of big tech firms?’ and ‘How can we reduce child poverty?’. Economics is a multi-disciplinary subject that draws on skills from History, Geography, Mathematics, Politics, Psychology and Business.
