Why study BA Economics at Goldsmiths

• We also offer something on top of that: an understanding of the real-world context of economics. So that you will be able to effectively use the economist’s toolbox to solve central problems faced by today’s economy.

• You will learn in small groups and will be assigned a personal tutor for the three years of your undergraduate degree. Your tutor will meet regularly with you, follow your progress, and will be your first point of contact in our programme. See what our students say about the small-group teaching environment.

• This degree will give you crucial skills for today’s competitive labour market. In recent surveys, employers said that on top of economics graduates’ analytical skills, graduates need a more pluralistic approach to economics. They would also welcome more awareness of economic history, of real-world contexts, and of the limitations of current economic models. They want economists to be able to better communicate their findings to non-specialists. Our degree provides exactly this mix of skills.
