What the college says

Economics is a wide ranging subject which touches on every aspect of commercial life. As a result, study of Economics will broaden your understanding of the business, political and real world, encouraging you to evaluate some of the consequences of business and government decisions. Study of Economics is useful to those intending to enter the business and commercial world since it is included as a core subject in the examinations of all the professional bodies. Economics is a difficult subject to summarise in a few lines and is probably unlike many of the subjects you will have studied at school. It is an academic subject which provides a good link between science and arts subjects.
