Economics is an exciting yet challenging subject, opening the doors to not only the economy but also the political, business, social and geographical world. It is evident all around us and is constantly evolving. The study of economics will allow students to develop their knowledge and understanding of the global world in both a micro and macro economy. It is a highly regarded subject by both universities and employers; economics graduates are amongst the highest earners entering the world of work. There are many university courses on offer. Economics can be studied with other combinations such as Business, Politics, Business/ Accounting and a language. Careers in management, accounting, business and marketing are some of the possibilities. Economics also leads indirectly to careers in law, journalism, media and in the City.
At least a grade 6 in GCSE Mathematics and a grade 5 in GCSE English Language. Students do not have to have studied Economics previously in order to study Economics at A Level. They do need, however, to be able to use their Maths and numeracy skills and a calculator, and it is essential that they are able to construct a coherent written argument. Emphasis is placed on encouraging students to develop their ability to recognise, define, analyse and evaluate problems.
