How can companies remain competitive in a crowded marketplace? How do they decide how much to invest in research and development? How do regulatory systems impact profit margins, innovation and growth?
Our BSc Industrial Economics will enable you to uncover the answers to these questions and more, giving you an understanding of the complex relationships between economics and global business practices. You’ll examine a company, take an in-depth look at its structure, markets, competitors and external economic environment.
You can follow your individual interests and career aspirations by selecting from optional modules alongside your core subjects. You could also really enhance your CV by opting for a work placement year at a company where you can be at the front line of business.
There's also the opportunity to gain a global perspective by studying abroad at our own campuses in China or Malaysia, or at a partner institution in locations including Australia, Sweden and the USA.
