Overview
On this single honours programme, you'll develop analytical and quantitative skills applicable to a wide range of careers in economics and beyond. We teach economics in a technically rigorous way, using mathematical models to formalise key concepts. You will also develop a deep knowledge of econometrics – the application of statistical methods to data to estimate economic models and test theories – as part of this degree. Econometrics is a vital tool for economists because, unlike natural sciences where controlled experiments are used to determine the effect of one thing on another, it is impossible to hold the economy constant while tinkering with a single variable. Econometrics provides the scientific means to overcome this issue using empirical observations. You'll build an extensive core knowledge in econometrics, mathematics, data, statistics, machine learning and macro- and microeconomics. You'll also be able to tailor your degree to suit your interests and career ambitions with optional modules – exploring topics ranging from data science to accounting, behavioural economics to auditing, banking and finance to international business, and much more. A dissertation will further enable you to apply your knowledge and skills in a specialist area, as you hone your research and analysis capabilities exploring a question of particular interest to you. You'll benefit from teaching that's informed by the latest developments in economics and our cutting-edge research – research which ranks in the top five for economics and econometrics amongst UK universities (REF 2021). We are also home to theEconomics Network, which improves the teaching and learning of economics in universities throughout the UK and Europe. By the end of the programme, you'll be well-prepared for a successful career. Recent BSc Economics and Econometrics graduates have gone on to work in roles such as Investment Analyst, Business Consultant, Data Analyst, and Infrastructure, Strategy and Operations Associate. They work at globally renowned organisations including KPMG, Siemens, and Aon. On average, Bristol economics students earn 26% more than other UK economics graduates within five years of graduation – typically enjoying salaries between £42,500 and £77,500 per year (discoveruni.gov.uk, 2024).
