Why study the Bachelor of Economics?
Economics is the study of human behaviour related to the production, distribution and consumption of goods and services, by means of markets, businesses or other institutions. As individuals, communities, companies and governments, we face choices every day, weighing up the costs and benefits of our decisions. This program provides the necessary skills to understand and explain how economic incentives and markets work, and how prices are formed. It provides strong statistical modelling and data analysis as well as an extensive conceptual toolkit to equip you to see the world through an economic lens. You will graduate with the skills, knowledge and abilities to think like an economist.
