About this course

Clarity helps us to understand our users’ behaviour by visually representing their clicks, taps and scrolling. All data is anonymised. In studying economics you will learn how individuals and society make choices about how scarce resources are used, what products are produced and who gets to consume them.

These choices depend on evaluating costs, benefits, risks and effects on others. You will gain a deep understanding of how markets function and you will have the opportunity to explore fields such as government policy, developing countries, the economics of business and international trade and finance. Coupled with a diverse, inclusive community and access to cutting-edge resources, our programme empowers you to analyse and address real-world economic challenges, preparing you for impactful careers in a range of industries.
