Economics

Economics is at the forefront of the news and central to national concerns, addressing issues such as the cost of living, Brexit, employment prospects, energy prices, inflation, and housing. It’s about choice and how our choices impact one another, affecting every aspect of our lives. The economic way of thinking can help us make better decisions. Economics is broadly divided into two main areas – microeconomics and macroeconomics. Students study both aspects together.
