Are you an analytical person with a passion to tackle
pressing socioeconomic challenges such as poverty,
unemployment, financial instability, gender and racial
inequality and the effects of climate change?
As a BSc Economics student, you will learn to take a scientific
evidence-based approach to understand, critique and create
policies to combat economic and social problems.
Employers in all sectors from government to financial
services have a growing need for economists who
can analyse and interpret data. This requires a strong
grounding in analytical and quantitative methods beyond
the Economics core in the Maynooth Bachelor of Arts
programme (MH101).
With an emphasis on independent research, the programme
is designed to allow you to flourish based on your individual
curiosity and strengths.
From BSc Economics, you can automatically continue with
the MSc Economics Programme should you perform at the
required level - 55% overall in your degree.
