Course Summary
Delivered at first year undergraduate level, our Economics course explores essential frameworks of economics in a global context.
The course introduces economics through the application of economic theory in the modern world, emphasising recent trends and developments and putting them in a historical
perspective.
Lessons will include theoretical analysis and study into core aspects of micro and macroeconomics in addition to theoretical study of economic theory, including studying works from Smith, Marx, Keynes, Friedman, and others.
This course takes a global perspective on economics, including analysing international
economic policy and case studies of specific countries and their use of Universal Basic Incomes, austerity policies, and tax policies.
