In this advanced economics programme, students aged 16–18 will explore the workings of global economies from the heart of Oxford. Covering market efficiency, global trade, and policy-making, the course blends theory with discussion of real-world issues.
You’ll be challenged to analyse complex problems, weigh ethical considerations, and debate the choices that shape economic systems. This is excellent preparation for university-level study in economics, business, or politics.

Our tutors are used to teaching undergraduate students who have travelled from all over the world. They are delighted to support students who do not have English as a first language. However, we recommend that participants have a minimum English level of B2 to benefit from the programmes' academic nature fully.
Students are supervised by their subject tutor during class times, and by dedicated mentors during their free time. Students will be part of a mentor family, which is a group of around 7-10 participants attending the programme in the same college but studying a variety of subjects. They are led by their mentor, a current undergraduate at the host university, who is there to answer any questions they may have about the programme or life at university. Mentors form the core of our pastoral care and are on hand to help participants throughout the programme.
