We'll introduce you to the main economics issues that confront the British and European economies and help you to develop the skills needed for economic analysis. Alongside these modules, you'll study core topics in mathematics and statistics, including mathematical methods; analytic geometry and the foundations of differential equations; and modelling with differential equations.

We'll also introduce you to probability and statistics.

You'll develop your communication and study skills by working in small group tutorials to complete a guided research investigation in business.
