With the global recession in 2008, Brexit and austerity measures, now is a fantastic time to study Economics. If you are interested in the relationship between the economy and our lives, then this is the course for you. Why study it? Are the Government’s spending cuts working? Can trade or aid really help countries out of poverty? Why does a Premier League footballer earn so much more than a top surgeon? Why is it so expensive to buy a house in some parts of Bristol? The course will help you to understand how economics influence all our lives. This subject is for you if… • You have an enquiring mind. • You have an interest in current affairs and a good level of mathematical ability. • You can carry out independent research. • You are able to form your own opinions and arguments. Where can it lead you? Economics provides a good basis for degrees in Economics, Politics, Law, Business, Accountancy, Finance, History, Humanities, Social Sciences and related subjects. Careers: many different areas of finance, business, politics, law, journalism, accountancy, banking and the public sector are available to students of Economics.
