About this course

Study BSc Economics and Politics at Queen Mary University of London. Explore economic theory, public policy and global political issues while building strong analytical and research skills. Untangle complex national and global issues from two different and complementary perspectives.

Have you ever wondered how public policies are created? Join us to study economics and politics, where you’ll explore these big questions and more. London’s financial centres, the City and Canary Wharf, are on our doorstep which means we invite guest lecturers to talk with you about specialist areas such as Brexit Britain and international development.

You’ll also learn from a teaching team that makes an impact on policy-making and public debate through their research. Looking at the economy as a whole is a central part of this course, but you’ll analyse the behaviour and motivations of individuals and companies too.
