What Is an Economics Degree?

Are you passionate about the business and finance sector? Do you follow the national and international news? Then, an Economics degree is the answer. It has always been one of the most sought-after degrees amongst youth. 

Economics degrees are designed to tackle all the issues that have an impact on financial situations, ranging from production to how resources are used. Candidates are trained to understand how the economy suffers fluctuations based on the market’s needs and wants followed by the market’s supply and demand.

By far one of the most crucial elements is that economics is divided into microeconomics and macroeconomic. Microeconomics deals with the economic behaviour at an individual level (companies, buyers, sellers and others), whilst macroeconomics illustrates the bigger picture, on a national or global scale (unemployment, economic growth, inflation and so on).

Benefits of an Economics Degree

Having an economics degree increases anyone’s chances to find a job, regardless of the field. This is mainly due to the fact that graduates hold many transferable abilities, such as analytical and problem-solving skills, that are suitable for any career. 

A study made by the London School of Economics and Political Science showed that graduates from an economics course have a starting salary of £33,000 per year. Having a job in the field right after graduation is a major positive aspect and comes with a lot of opportunities for career advancement.

Economics Degree Structure

Economics degrees are usually a three years commitment and sometimes are offered as part of a joint degree. This means that Economics can be studied along with another subject such as engineering, management, law, computer science and others.

This degree can be found either as a Bachelor of Science (BSc) or Bachelor of Arts (BA). The BSc focuses more on economical theory and statistical techniques, while BA is combined with social sciences and qualitative modules.

    Bachelor's

    I graduated Bachelor’s degree in Finance in 2017. During the degree, I did one semester Erasmus exchange in CULS, Prague and a summer Erasmus internship in a company in Sicily.
    Later, in 2018 I graduated Master’s degree in International tourism and I had one more semester of Erasmus exchange in Rimini, Italy.
    Since 2015 I am a volunteer in the student organization called ESN (Erasmus Student Network) where I had the opportunity to be PR, Events coordinator and President of the local section in UNWE. Through this organization I had the opportunity to meet international exchange students from all over the world. Since 2018 I am also a member of the ECO Club UNWE.
    The university gives opportunities to join many local clubs and to develop yourself in different fields.

    My experience in UNWE

    UNWE is one of the oldest universities in my city. It is a big university that provides you many opportunities for your growth during your education. Although there are not many programmes in English – the university has collected the best ones and created courses in English.
    I have been a student for 2 years now and I am very impressed by the fact that in my program there are many foreigners that really enjoy their stay here in Sofia.
    Another thing that I do like is the fact that most of the teachers are motivated and have the charisma to teach.
    To be honest, I do not regret my choice to study here even though I was not happy at first.

    Offers programs of good quality for Bulgarian higher education standards

    The UNWE is one of the biggest and oldest universities in Bulgaria on one hand and among the most respected higher institutions in the country on the other hand. All academic activities are concentrated in one large building and all lectures and seminars are within a walking distance so you don’t need to waste a lot of time reaching different lecture halls or seminar rooms.
    The library is not bad but I cannot say that it is very comprehensive. There is a computer room in the main library with free Wi-FI for students.
    The Faculty of General Economics is among the most important ones and its main asset is the teachers who work there.
    The most important feature of the master’s program in economics is that it is more like a program in applied economics than pure economics program. Of course, that is due to the fact that it is a direct successor to the Political economy program. It means that you can deliberate about different concepts and not just calculate maths problems.
    Relatively old facilities stand out as the most negative feature of the university.
    I would recommend the program and the university to anyone who wants to learn more about the subject they are interested in. However, do not have too high expectations because you may be disappointed.
