Most economics degrees follow a common pattern. Each year will be divided into modules. While some of these will be compulsory, some will be optional. The proportion of modules that you have to choose will typically increase in the later years of an undergraduate degree.
Universities offer a wide range of modules, presenting us with a difficult task. We have chosen six modules that we feel are representative of all universities nation-wide. Names and content of modules will differ depending upon the institution. Not all institutions offer all the modules listed but many offer others that we haven't covered.
- Development Economics
- Labour Economics
- Environmental Economics
- Econometrics
