This subject is a dynamic and contemporary option, designed to develop an appreciation of the way in which individuals, firms and governments apply the world’s resources to satisfy the planet’s insatiable desire for goods and services. It is difficult to envisage a career that does not include at least an awareness of economics. This rich and stimulating subject embraces and stimulates discussion, leading to any participant questioning the priorities of society and how decisions are made. The subject is enriched by the diversity of challenges that the world presents to economic policy makers, notably the recent pandemic and Brexit and students are encouraged to develop rigorous powers of analysis and evaluation. As such many young people find the environment of this part of the department an exciting one. Economics is an intellectually demanding subject that requires and develops a wide range of skills. A large number of our A level candidates go on to study economics or a related subject at university. A wide range of career paths are available not just in finance and business but also in the law, civil service, in UK and European public policy making, and in journalism. Theme 1: Introduction to Markets and Market Failure Theme 2: The UK Economy - performance and policies Theme 3: Business Behaviour and the Labour Market Theme 4: A Global Perspective"
