Business with Economics BSc (Hons)
You’ve set your sights high. You want a course that connects you with up-to-the-minute ideas and discussions. We’ve designed our full-time Business with an Economics degree to match that ambition. Based in Cambridge, you’ll be at the forefront of current issues and challenges in economics. And you won’t just learn in the lecture theatre. There’s the chance to get involved in extracurricular activities, debating big ideas such as the minimum wage, capitalism, and Brexit, and choose to gain valuable work experience with a placement year.
You know there’s more to economics than meets the eye. Beyond the theory, there is a space where economics collides with the world – and there’s never just one way of looking at things. Economics isn’t just about the numbers. It’s about making sense of those numbers and understanding how things work and change across industries.
The world of business and economics never stands still, which is why – with input from our students and employers – we're refreshing this course. Taking real-world challenges as our starting point, there'll be even more of a focus on practical, hands-on learning – and more opportunities to ignite your career. This page has details of the modules we'll be introducing from September 2020.
