Economics is not just money or banking, it is a way of thinking and understanding human action under conditions of uncertainty and scarcity. In a world of fast-paced capital movements, quantitative easing, macroeconomic instability, Brexit and its effect on trade, and continuing issues of the euro as a monetary union, it is crucial to understand what economics means at a basic level.
This course covers the fundamentals of economics taught from a quantitative basis, including an understanding of economic thinking and systems, an appreciation of financial approaches, and related mathematical, statistical, and analytical skills essential for starting a career in the global economic and financial community.
The second year offers the opportunity to study abroad, at one of BU's international partner institutions during the second semester. Currently, Bournemouth has partners in Australia, Canada and Europe. In year three students will get the opportunity to undertake an optional 30-week placement in the UK or abroad, allowing them to secure career contacts, improve their CV, and ultimately enhance their employability.
Graduates are now working as economic and financial analysts, data analysts, business development advisers, accountants and executives for companies such as Adidas UK Ltd, Apple, Bank of New York Mellon, BMW Financial Services, British Airways, Enterprise, and Hayes.
