The course culminates with either a traditional dissertation or a consultancy project.
You can choose to do a dissertation on an economic area that interests you or that is most useful in your career. This will allow you to apply your newly acquired knowledge to a specific problem or debate.
The consultancy project is practical an alternative to the dissertation. You’ll work on a project with an external organisation, helping them to address a real-world business challenge. You’ll conduct appropriate research and data analysis (if necessary), before presenting your findings as a written report and presentation.
Consultancy project numbers are limited each year. You’ll apply for a suitable project with one of our external partners and will receive support from us during this process. If a suitable project can’t be secured, you will complete a dissertation instead.

Enhance your ability to develop logical and rigorous economics arguments, and use mathematical techniques to construct and interpret economic models.
This unit is split into microeconomic and macroeconomic parts.
microeconomics will focus on the behaviour of economic agents
macroeconomics will focus on the analytical properties of modern dynamic macroeconomic models and their related policy applications.
Through both areas you will engage with key research articles.
Study how to develop models that are motivated by empirical evidence of individual behaviour rather than assumptions about rationality.
You'll gain a critical appreciation of the theoretical tools used in these relatively new but increasingly important areas of economics. This unit will help you to develop skills that you can use in a variety of applied economic contexts.
The Consultancy Project will allow you to apply your skills to a project with one of our partner organisations.
Your project will focus on a theoretical or empirical topic within economics or finance. You'll do this under the guidance of academic and company supervisors.
Through your other units, you'll learn how to engage with academic literature in a systematic manner. This will give you the skills to plan, undertake, and evaluate your own project.
Work with real world economic data and learn about the various ways it can be used to explore relationships between economic variables.
You'll develop knowledge of methods that can be applied to data from experiments, as well as data drawn from the economy without the intervention of an experiment (observational data).
Learn about the economics of financial intermediation, with a focus on banking.
You'll explore market frictions and the fundamental roles of financial institutions and markets that address them. Throughout the unit, you'll give special attention to:
You'll also study the changing roles of these topics in financial intermediation.
Study how to apply introductory microeconomic theory to the analysis of political behaviour.

Develop a good understanding of the main concepts utilised by economists to inform decisions around environmental management.
You'll gain an appreciation of the extent to which real-life environmental challenges can be better understood through the insights offered by economic analysis.
You'll also study a range of environmental issues across local, national and global scales, and explore how economics can support the management of these issues.
Learn how to use econometric methods for testing asset pricing theories and modelling a variety of features in financial markets.
You'll study the techniques needed for empirical investigation in financial economics. This will help you to gain a better understanding of crucial concepts like risk, return, and prediction.
Throughout this unit, you will focus on how to apply the models you'll learn about to real financial data and contemporary developments in applied financial research.
Study the principles of programming and methods of machine learning.
You'll gain practical skills in:
You'll also explore the relevance of taught machine learning methods to economics and finance.
Enhance your understanding of investment banks and how they provide advice to their clients in capital market transactions.
You'll gain an understanding of how the interests of investment banks and their clients are not always aligned and how that impacts the advice given. You'll also learn about the consequences of these conflicts of interest and employment practices in investment banks.
Study how macroeconomic policy is designed and conducted in theory and in practice.
You'll learn about key areas of policy intervention and trade-offs, including short-run and long-run policy interventions. These will cover areas like:
This will enhance your knowledge of policy objectives and allow you to explore the tools and strategies used by actors and institutions in charge of achieving those objectives.
Explore macroeconomic theory and develop the skills required to be a professional economist.
You'll gain the knowledge needed to discuss policy implications affecting the level of, and fluctuations in, macroeconomic variables like:
You'll also study how empirical observations have informed the design of macroeconomic models and examine how recent advances in macroeconomic theory are able to inform policymakers.
The dissertation option is your opportunity to apply and extend the skills developed during your taught units.
Your dissertation must focus on a theoretical or empirical topic. You'll complete it under the guidance of an academic supervisor.
You will learn to engage with academic literature in a systematic manner, which will advance your ability to plan, undertake, and evaluate a research project in economics or finance.
Develop advanced knowledge of the theory and techniques of microeconomic analysis, and prepare for specialised study of economics.
You'll learn how to present decision-making situations and strategic interactions as mathematical problems, and how to subsequently solve those problems. You'll also develop your understanding of theoretical benchmarks for comparative analysis and practical comparisons.
Learn about how to evaluate public policies. You'll explore policies in the context of initial aims and end results.
Throughout the unit, you'll study how applied economic tools can be used to evaluate public policies, using real-world case studies in the fields of:
