Explore the relationship between economic and political aspects of the modern world in this dual honours degree.

Understand the integral relationship between economics and politics and explore how the two work together to shape policies and influence your daily life. 

You’ll analyse political ideas, institutions and practices while developing the quantitative and analytical skills essential for effective economic analysis.

After a first year spent primarily on micro- and macroeconomic analysis and key political concepts, you will create your own mix of core and optional modules in both economics and politics during your second year.

With the option to complete a year-long work placement after your second year, you could learn how to apply your knowledge and skills to industry work and develop a more balanced understanding of both disciplines as you move into your third year.

Your final year will include a research project in politics and the opportunity to apply your economics skills to contemporary issues and themes in a module on policy and practice. Upon graduation, you will have developed a deep understanding of political ideas and action, alongside the analytical and methodological skills needed for economic analysis. Both will help you stand out within the job market for whatever career you decide to pursue.
