Full event details
Are your students curious about the big challenges facing our economies –
inequality, technological innovation, climate change? Are they considering
a career as an analyst in the public sector, industry, or non-governmental
organisations? Are they keen to develop strong numerical, communication, and
critical thinking skills? This interactive masterclass will introduce students
to the study of economics, what economists do, and how the tools of economic
analysis can be applied to understand real-world issues. Delivered by academics
with a wealth of research and industry experience, they will find out about our
economics degrees and the careers they can lead to. While very favourable for all
types of students, this masterclass will be of particular interest to women, who
tend to secure higher earnings positions with an economics degree in comparison
to other subjects.
