Overview

Economics isn't just about numbers; it's about understanding human behaviour, social issues, and other influencing factors that shape our world.

Studying economics empowers you to make informed decisions and contribute to a sustainable and inclusive future. Alongside core modules in microeconomics, macroeconomics and quantitative methods, you can explore topics such as game theory and globalisation.

You can also choose to complement your economics degree course by taking modules in subject areas such as finance, business management, digital marketing and law.

At the end of year 1 of the Economics (Hons) degree from the University of Brighton you can choose a specialist subject that complements your degree, or to carry on with the broader economics degree.
