BSc Economics and Management

About this course

Economics and management is a degree that combines the analytical frameworks of economic theory with the practical knowledge of how organisations are led and run. Economics provides rigorous models for understanding how markets work, how incentives shape behaviour, and how policy affects outcomes. Management provides the operational and strategic knowledge needed to lead teams, make resource allocation decisions, and navigate competitive commercial environments. Together they produce a graduate who can think both theoretically and practically about how businesses and economies function. The online BSc in Economics and Management from the University of London is delivered through distance learning, which means you can study from anywhere without attending a campus. This format is designed for students who need flexibility because of work, geography, family or other commitments, and it opens access to a qualification from one of the UK's most distinguished university systems to a global audience. You will build economic reasoning skills and an international perspective on management issues, developing an understanding of the evolving relationships between industries, markets and economies. The programme has no fixed tariff requirement for online distance learners, making it accessible through a range of entry routes. You will study microeconomics and macroeconomics, quantitative methods, corporate finance, organisational theory, and global business strategy, developing both the analytical depth that economics demands and the applied understanding of how businesses operate in real markets. Distance learning requires strong self-discipline and time management, but it also develops independence and the ability to work effectively without a fixed institutional structure, qualities that are themselves valued by employers. Graduates move into careers in business analysis, management consultancy, financial services, international business, public policy, and a wide range of commercial and public sector roles. Further study at postgraduate level in economics, management, or finance is a natural next step for those who want to specialise or progress to senior roles.
