Course summary

The program will provide a comprehensive understanding of the overall context of business and government, and the high-level technical skills to analyse economic and social data and events. It will equip to develop economic and social policy, and provides key capabilities for those who want to work in fields such as financial markets, business, banking, and consulting in both the private and public sectors. The specialist program will provide an excellent grounding in economic theory and business statistics and will allow completing a major in economics or the more statistically based econometrics. Students can also combine their study with majors in any area of arts and social sciences, majors from within the School of Business or choose to study a major or elective from one of the many faculties throughout the University. Central to the strength of economics at the University of Sydney is the large undergraduate honours program and its two key elements: an applied economics focus and expert training in economic theory and econometrics. Graduates go on from distinguished honours program to pursue research degrees and take up specialist positions in treasury, the Reserve Bank of Australia, other policy department roles within federal and state governments, central banks and international agencies, financial markets and financial institutions.
