Course Overview

Graduate economists possess good writing skills, strong numerical and computational skills, and enhanced communication and presentational skills. It’s hardly surprising that they are found in various fields, including insurance and actuarial work, banking and finance, sales and marketing, and in more traditional public sector areas of public policy and treasury functions.

We provide an environment that allows you to develop the different practical employability characteristics that make you more attractive to employers in the job market.

Our staff use their extensive business connections to provide many and varied opportunities to engage with potential employers through fairs, guest lecture sessions, live projects and site visits. In addition, we offer workshops and events in the first, second and third years that ensure all students are equipped with both degree-level subject knowledge and the practical skills employers are looking for in new graduate recruits. We also offer extensive support for students to find and secure industry-year placements, which have been shown to impact a student’s career prospects of graduation significantly.
