Overview of Course

With an emphasis on the fundamental principles of economic analysis, the BSc Economics programme from the University of London enhances your analytical, quantitative and communication skills. The Department of Economics at LSE is highly regarded worldwide for its published research. This BSc programme equips you with a strong foundation in economic theory and essential quantitative skills, including statistics and mathematics. Your advanced courses will cover a wide range of more specialised subjects (e.g. economic policy and international trade), the behaviours of economies and the application of economic theory to particular topics. You will develop communication skills and analytical ways of thinking that you can apply to a wide range of real-world problems.

As global economies grow increasingly complex, new financial regulations emerge and the business landscape becomes more competitive, professionals with an interdisciplinary understanding of economics are more valuable than ever. With high-level mathematical and statistical skills, complex data numeracy and the ability to use economic concepts to solve real-world problems across sectors, graduates of this degree are well positioned to pursue a range of career options or embark on further study.
