Business Economics, BA (Hons), with industry placement

Economics influences every aspect of life, from everyday choices to global policies, equipping graduates for diverse careers. At Greenwich, we emphasize economics as a tool for fostering equitable prosperity, meaningful employment, and a carbon-neutral transition. As a national leader in applied, history-informed economics that values diversity, we offer pathways in ESG (environmental, social, and governance) or public policy after the first year. Business economics students develop skills to analyze real-world problems, preparing for entrepreneurship, employment, or further study, with alumni succeeding in industry, finance, civil service, NGOs, research, and education.Key highlights include enhancing data-handling through Bloomberg terminals, programming, and Reuters certification; gaining a broad understanding of business and economic theories; and studying at our historic Greenwich campus in London, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The program is professionally accredited by the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, ensuring recognized qualifications.
