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.

    The Accommodation options nearby the University

    Today, I am going to tell you about the accommodation options in vicinity to the Uni. Hello Students accommodation at Old Gate are one of these. The location of Old Gate House is ideally near to the Uni just 4 minute’s walk. It is nearest to Sainsbury, a very good superstore full of stuff and it has Halal and Pakistani/Indian food available there. The rooms at Old Gate House are big & cozy and the staff there is simply wonderful. The average price of a studio at Old Gate House is 150 British Pounds per week. So, if you like a peaceful and secure stay, Old Gate House is a nice choice.

    Dear Aisha, yes you can come here easily. The usual requirement is a valid IELTS test with a minimum of 6 bands in every skill with a complete graduation degree from your home country with a minimum of 55% of the Marks. There are many young students enrolled in different programs, hope this will help you. Good Luck.
