Course Overview

About This Course

The Bachelor of Economics (course code B2031) explores what the economy is built on and how to analyse decisions in a commercial context. At its core, economics considers how people, businesses and governments use finite resources to function as a society, and the impacts of the economic decisions made every day. It is an analytical, data-driven discipline that thinks about challenges logically and finds sustainable ways forward, making qualified economists essential to both businesses and governments. Students learn to think analytically, solve problems logically, and make informed commercial decisions.
