In the Bachelor's program in Economics, you will study how people, companies, and governments make certain decisions (microeconomics) and how these decisions affect the economy as a whole (macroeconomics). Economics focuses on the environment in which individuals, companies, and countries relate to each other. You will focus on the big picture and how different forces are at work in a global economy. Business-related courses only play a small role in the program in order to allow for a specialized focus on economics.
- The first year will give you a solid foundation in the core micro- and macroeconomics topics. Mathematics and Statistics will serve as tools: they are a language used to understand economic models.
- The second year will build on the knowledge you have gained in the first year. You will delve into microeconomics and macroeconomics more in-depth, gaining specialized knowledge in a range of courses such as Development Economics or International Trade.
- In the third year you can study abroad for one semester at one of our many partner universities around the world, or you can stay in Tilburg and take elective courses. Your thesis is the crowning achievement of all your hard work.
