Economics and Geography

About this course

Economics and geography address overlapping questions from different disciplinary perspectives. Economics asks how resources are allocated, how markets work, and how the behaviour of individuals and institutions produces aggregate outcomes for prosperity, inequality, and growth. Geography situates these economic processes in space, asking how location, environment, and physical infrastructure shape economic activity, and how the Earth's human and natural systems interact. At the University of Aberdeen, this four-year full-time programme adds to your thorough grounding in the global economy and how it operates by setting it in the context of geography, the Earth, human relationships with the environment, and much more. You will study microeconomics, macroeconomics, econometrics, and economic theory alongside physical and human geography, environmental systems, and the spatial dimensions
