This course allows you to study the many different ways society distributes scarce resources such as land, labour, raw materials, and machinery to produce goods and services. There are two subdivisions within Economics: Microeconomics involves studying individuals' and organisations' supply and demand decisions, such as how profits can be maximised and how much of a good or service consumers will demand at a certain price. Macroeconomics deals with the study of outcomes in the whole economy being concerned with such issues as unemployment, inflation, economic growth, productivity, and investment. Economics relies upon analytical and quantitative techniques to verify or reject theories about such behaviour. One of the most frequently used techniques is Econometrics, where statistical techniques are used to formulate models, estimate economic relationships and develop forecasts. As well as the core aspects, Economics can also be applied to a variety of areas - these are reflected in the range of topics you will have the opportunity to study during the programme.
