| With the impact of Brexit on the UK and global economy, there has never been a better time to study Economics. Studying Economics at Manchester Met offers the opportunity to align your personal interests of the subject with your career goals. Economics can offer a wide variety of possible career paths, so we have designed the degree so that you can explore the vast areas that economics influences. Economics is concerned with the optimal use of resources. Studying economics develops your knowledge of the factors influencing how international organisations, governments, companies, domestic financial institutions and individuals invest and allocate their resources including money. Economists examine the choices that individuals, companies and governments have to make between competing alternatives that may be subject to strict time constraints and limited resources. Economics provides a vital insight and analysis into the decisions that affect not only business, commerce and finance, but every aspect of our daily lives. Economists evaluate and compare the costs and benefits of different courses of action, considering issues such as employment, the distribution of income and wealth, government spending, investment, productivity and growth, international trade, finance and governments' debt servicing. You will develop skills valued by employers, such as analytical and numerical skills, problem solving and the ability to interpret data, extract and understand information. |
