My current course is actually MSc Economics but it is not here for some reason. I studied my BSc here also. The flexibility of the BSc is great and allows you to tailor your degree to whichever career you are interested in and the careers team here is amazing at helping you start your career straight after your graduate. read more

Not particularly useful content is taught, and is taught poorly. Reading lecture slides word for word should not be worth 9k a year. Similarly, omitting information from these slides due to low attendance and telling 20 of 200 students the information they need to pass an exam is a joke. When somebody asks for help, don't respond with it's independent learning read more
