Economics / Psychology (SocSci), MA (Hons)

In the study of economics, students examine how individuals and societies allocate scarce resources, determine what products are produced, and decide who consumes them. This process involves evaluating costs, benefits, risks, and impacts on others. The curriculum covers principles of microeconomics and macroeconomics, offering opportunities to explore areas such as government policy, developing countries, business economics, and international trade and finance.Psychology is the scientific exploration of the mind and behavior, focusing on how people think, act, react, and interact. This knowledge enables psychologists to support individuals personally while addressing broader societal issues through research and professional practice.
