BSc Economics and International Economics
About this course
Economics and international economics is a programme that develops a deep analytical understanding of how economies work and how they interact across national borders. Economics provides the theoretical and quantitative tools to understand markets, firms, consumers, governments, and macroeconomic phenomena such as inflation, unemployment, and growth. International economics extends this analysis to trade, exchange rates, capital flows, the international monetary system, and the policies that shape economic relationships between countries. Together, the two strands develop a rigorous and globally oriented economic education. The University of Nottingham's three-year full-time Economics and International Economics degree carries a typical entry tariff of 184 points, reflecting the high academic demands of the programme. You will study microeconomics and macroeconomics at an advanced level, alongside econometrics, mathematical methods, international trade theory, monetary economics, and the economics of development and globalisation. The programme develops both your theoretical understanding and your quantitative analytical skills, preparing you to work with economic data and models as well as to engage with the ideas and debates that shape economic thinking and policy. Nottingham's economics department has strong research credentials, and you will benefit from an environment where teaching is informed by active scholarship. Economics graduates are among the most versatile in the jobs market. Careers in finance, banking, economic consultancy, the civil service, the Treasury and Bank of England, international organisations such as the IMF and World Bank, think tanks, and corporate strategy are all well-established routes for economics graduates. The quantitative and analytical skills the degree develops are also valued in data science, risk management, and the technology sector. Many graduates pursue postgraduate study in economics, finance, public policy, or a related discipline, and a significant number continue to doctoral research.
