The Financial Economics with Econometrics degree introduces you to the tools that economists have developed in financial and money markets. This work has been enormously influential in contributing to the development of financial instruments used by households, firms and governments in their respective decisions to save or borrow. A particular feature of this programme is that it emphasises real-world examples. The programme also has modules that examine the way in which economists construct and use mathematical and statistical models for forecasting and prediction, to help policymakers reach decisions concerning a range of economic problems. The programme aims to: provide a stimulating education in the principles of economics and finance along with their application to the real world, and motivate students to achieve their full potential; provide a flexible and progressive curriculum that is suitable for students who have or have not studied economics nor finance before; develop in students the ability to apply economic knowledge, analytical tools and skills in a range of theoretical, applied and policy problems. Our degrees not only provide you with economics training but also with many transferable skills. Most employers are looking for skills such as good communication, initiative and proactiveness, team working, time management, planning and organisation, analysing information and problem solving.
