BA Joint (Hons) Economics & Human Resource Management

Following the recent global economic crisis, economics is more important and relevant than ever. Decisions on money, banking, interest rates, taxation and government spending affect us all, with global consequences.

Economics aims to understand the activities of the different economic agents – consumers, producers and the government – and how they all fit together.
