Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Economics and Sociology

This Economics degree offers a unique setting within a very experienced Department of Social and Political Science. The course reinforces the vision of economics as a major social science that influences others, and the consideration of the different contexts and fields that economics is related to. In that sense, it distances its approach from the traditional focus on financial markets, to look into wider factors influencing the development of countries’ economies.

Being a dynamic young course it is continuously evolving, and through participatory activities and use of the latest technologies, it aims to contribute towards enhancing your employability.
