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.

    Internationalisation above all

    Ca’ Foscari University has given me a lot, both from an academic point of view and relationship one. I have had lots of incitements always to do my best and to never give up. I think it is one of the best public university in Italy and I highly recommend it, it is absolutely impossible not to like it.

    Business in Venice

    I love my programme, the professors are great and very helpful. Ca’foscari has the best economics programme in Italy, so I would highly recommend applying. The TAs are also really great, they will explain anything you didn’t understand in your lectures and of course you could always schedule office hours with the professor which I’ve always found helpful

    A Solid and Engaging Academic Experience

    I had a great experience during my bachelor’s degree at Ca’ Foscari. The professors were knowledgeable and always available, and the facilities where classes were held were functional and well maintained. I especially appreciated the many extracurricular activities organized by the university, which were always interesting and well thought out. An experience I’d recommend to anyone looking for a serious yet stimulating academic environment.

    Opportunities At Ca\\\' Foscari

    Thanks to my 5-year academic experience at Ca’ Foscari University, I had the chance to pursue an Erasmus+ scholarship to study in Norway (at NTNU, Trondheim) for one year. The knowledge acquired while studying in Venice, enriched me with both soft and hard skills that allowed me to study in a completely different country and context. Professors are prepared, reliable and available most of the time. My Master’s thesis coordinator, constantly helped me throughout the entire writing process and he always maintained a steady communication between him and I. Moreover, there are a lot of university clubs which anyone can join: I personally joined Marketers Club as Partnership Specialist, which is based on Marketing and the digital world. It gave me the opportunity to interface myself with real-world companies and to cooperate in the organization of internal events. After these five years at Ca’ Foscari, it was easy for me to find a job that I like in a really nice and competitive company. I am really happy and satisfied with what this university has offered to me and I would do it again and again!

    Venice taught me business — and life — all at once

    The program itself is solid. Strong on theory—microeconomics, corporate finance, management—and the international cohort means group work actually exposes you to different ways of thinking about business problems. My study group alone had students from Germany, Brazil, and Indonesia. That’s not something you get everywhere.

    Where it falls short is practical application. Case studies are light, and there’s very little that bridges classroom theory to what businesses actually do. If you’re hoping to graduate feeling work-ready, you’ll need internships on your own initiative—the program won’t hand that to you.

    Still, a strong academic reputation, a genuinely international atmosphere, and Venice as your backyard. Not a bad trade.
