The Sussex School of Business, Management and Economics has been placed among the top European centres for research in economics in a new ranking published by Research Papers in Economics (RePEc), the global index of research in the subject. 

'Top 25% European Economics Departments, as of March 2016' places the School at 18th of 203 instutions in Europe listed with the service. 

The list is based on data held by RePEc about authors registered to its service, bibliographic information and citation anaylsis. 

This ranking is the second such piece of recognition in as many weeks for economics at Sussex, following the University's placement for economics at number 22 in the 2017 Complete University Guide subject tables.
