Economics and Econometrics

About this course

Economics and econometrics is a degree for those who want not only to understand economic principles but to develop the quantitative methods needed to test theories against data and to measure economic relationships with precision. Econometrics applies statistical and mathematical methods to economic data, allowing economists to move beyond verbal reasoning to empirical analysis of questions about how markets work, how policies affect behaviour, and what drives economic growth and inequality. The combination of economic theory and econometric method is the standard approach of professional economists in academia, government, and the private sector. At Bristol, this three-year degree develops the analytical and quantitative skills that are applicable across a wide range of careers in economics and beyond. You will study microeconomics and macroeconomics in depth, developing formal models
