**About the course**
Combine practical management knowledge with analytical economics skills and gain a competitive edge in your future management career. You’ll explore different perspectives on similar issues, such as the role of investment within the economy and its influence on the business cycle.
You’ll learn the principles of economics and their application to a range of practical and topical issues, while gaining a solid grounding in diverse aspects of management and understanding the context within which modern business is conducted. To help you gain quantitative skills, you’ll also study mathematics and statistics, along with studying econometrics to extend your knowledge of statistical techniques and research methods.
You choose from a range of economics and management options to consolidate your conceptual and practical knowledge, and you can broaden your experience further with an option to study abroad or apply for a professional placement year.
