Why Study Economics?
Degrees in Economics bridge business and social science, preparing graduates for diverse careers such as financial analyst, accountant, project manager, business analyst, and more. Economists apply their expertise in corporations to forecast demand and analyze market competition, in the financial sector to assess risk and study market data, and in government to research and enforce policies. International organizations also value economists for their analytical skills and ability to manage complex economic issues.
