Description:

This programme allows you to reach a better understanding of who and what influence the decisions that determine national and international economic policies. The BA degree in Economics & Politics is an exciting multidisciplinary joint-major programme that gives you the opportunity to study these complementary subjects together in a systematic way. It allows you to reach a better understanding of who and what influence the decisions that determine national and international economic policies.

It also equips you with the quantitative skills needed to analyse economic policies. The combination of subjects does not pre-suppose any particular school subjects although it is an advantage for you to have ability in mathematics for Economics and an interest in current affairs for Politics.
