You will build your analytical skills with mandatory units in macro- and microeconomics, mathematics, statistics and econometrics (the application of statistical methods to data to estimate economic models). These are complemented by units in philosophy, which will equip you with skills in textual analysis, written and verbal expression, logic and critical thinking.<br/><br/>As you progress through your degree, you will be able to take an increasing number of optional units to specialise in the areas that interest you most.<br/><br/>Previous economics options have included: History of Economic Thought; Environmental Economics; Data Science; Current Economic Problems. Previous philosophy options have included: Democracy; Philosophy of Psychology; Evil, Deviance and Crime; Philosophy of Mathematics.<br/><br/>We offer you the opportunity to extend your degree to four years and spend your third year studying economics in English at a top-ranking university in Europe or farther afield, returning to Bristol for your final year.<br/><br/>This allows you to combine the challenging, broad academic content of our economics degree with an overseas dimension that reflects the international nature of the economy.
