Subject overview
Why economics?
Addressing many of the world’s problems and issues requires an understanding of economics. Why are some countries so rich and others so poor? Should Microsoft be broken up? Should the private sector be involved in providing health and education? Could environmental taxes help reduce global warming? What is the future of the euro?
Economics provides a framework for thinking about such issues in depth, allowing you to get to the heart of complex, topical problems. The methods of economics can be applied to a wide range of questions and will prove useful to you in your future career. In addition, the study of economics teaches you a variety of practical skills, including the ability to use and evaluate evidence (often statistical) in order to arrive at sound conclusions.

Why economics at Sussex?
In the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) 100 per cent of our economics research was rated as recognised internationally or higher, and 60 per cent rated as internationally excellent or higher.
We emphasise the practical application of economics to the analysis of contemporary social and economic problems.
We have strong links to the major national and international economic institutions such as the European Commission, the World Bank and the Department for International Development.
The Department of Economics has strong research clusters in labour markets and in development economics, and is one of Europe’s leading centres for research on issues of international trade.
We offer you the chance to conduct an economics research project supervised by a faculty member.
Programme content
The BSc in Economics is for students who wish to follow a quantitative approach to the subject. You take modules that deepen your knowledge of the foundations of economics and provide you with a range of advanced skills that are especially useful in some careers (eg modelling financial markets or equity prices). Having these technical skills also enables you to read some of the more advanced research in economics, published in academic journals, and is invaluable if you choose to go on to postgraduate study in economics.
A level Mathematics is not an entrance requirement for this degree, but you must be willing to engage with mathematical concepts and techniques that go beyond A level standard.
We continue to develop and update our modules for 2014 entry to ensure you have the best student experience. In addition to the course structure below, you may find it helpful to refer to the 2012 modules tab.
Core content
Year 1
You are introduced to the principles of economics and their application to a range of practical and topical issues. The aim is not to look at economic theory in isolation but to learn how it is used to analyse real issues. You also take a mathematics module, giving you some of the tools you need to understand contemporary economics
Year 2
You develop your understanding of economics principles through the study of more advanced topics such as trade and risk. You also take a statistics module and learn how to analyse and interpret data. In addition, there are more applied modules, allowing you to see how the subject deals with empirical issues. There are opportunities for small research projects, including a group project
Year 3
You have the opportunity to choose from a range of options such as labour or development economics. These modules go into the relevant issues in greater depth, giving you a high level of expertise. There is the opportunity to do a sustained piece of research on a chosen topic. You can also take more advanced quantitative modules – useful if you wish to do postgraduate work
How will I learn?
The core ideas and analytical techniques are presented in lectures and supplemented by classes or workshops where you can test your understanding and explore the issues in more depth. These provide the opportunity for student interaction, an essential part of the learning process at Sussex. The more quantitative skills, such as using statistical software, are taught in computer workshops. On the dissertation module in the final year, you receive one-to-one supervision as you investigate your chosen research topic in depth.
Formal assessment is by a range of methods including unseen exams and coursework. In addition there are regular assignments, which allow you to monitor your progress. In the first year, you have regular meetings with your academic advisor to discuss your academic progress and to receive feedback on your assignments.

Contemporary Economic Issues
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 1
This module complements Introduction to Economics by providing a series of lectures on current economic issues, which illustrate how basic economic principles may be applied to real problems. (If you are not taking Introduction to Economics you can still take this module but should have some background knowledge of economics, eg A-level). You are required to write two essays based on the lecture topics, to be marked by and discussed with your personal tutor, who will thereby monitor early progress at the university.
Introduction to Economics
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 1
This course provides an introduction to the fundamental principles of economics. The first half of the course deals with microeconomic issues including the behaviour of individuals and firms, their interaction in markets and the role of government. The second half of the course is devoted to macroeconomics and examines the determinants of aggregate economic variables, such as national income, inflation, and the balance of payments, and the relationships between them. This course also provides students with a basic introduction to mathematical economics, covering solving linear equations, differential calculus, and discounting.
Introduction to Mathematics for Finance and Economics
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 1
This module introduces you to the basic mathematical methods and techniques used in economic analysis, and will enable you to use these skills independently and with confident. These skills also have a transferable content and are useful in other disciplines and applications.
Macroeconomics 1
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 1
This module introduces core short-run and medium-run macroeconomics. First we study what determines demand for goods and services in the short run. We introduce financial markets and outline the links between financial markets and demand for goods. The Keynesian IS-LM model encapsulates these linkages.
Second, we switch to the medium-term supply-side. We bring together the market for labour to the price-setting decisions of firms in order to build an understanding of how inflation and unemployment are determined. Last, the supply side and the IS-LM model are combined to produce a full medium-term macroeconomic model.
Microeconomics 1
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 1
This module develops consumer and producer theory, examining such topics as consumer surplus, labour supply, production and costs of the firm, alternative market structures and factor markets. It explores the application of these concepts to public policy, making use of real-world examples to illustrate the usefulness of the theory.
Principles of Finance
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 1
This module introduces you to basic elements of finance, including principles based on economic or finance theory, and mathematical or statistical techniques used to implement or analyse such principles. A sound knowledge of these principles will be important for many subsequent modules on your degree course.
On successful completion of the module, you will have a knowledge of various aspects of finance, such as discounting, sinking funds, valuing securities and the relationship between risk and return. You will also be able to solve a variety of analytical problems in the field of finance. These skills will be acquired and developed though discussion of answers to problems set in weekly classes.
The World Economy since 1945
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 1
The module covers the history of the world economy since 1945 and draws mainly on work by historically oriented economists such as Kindleberger and Eichengreen but, where appropriate, will discuss contrasting interpretations offered by other disciplines.
Part 1 consists of: the Golden Age; the economy before 1945; the Post-World War II settlement: the international agenda and the rise of welfare states; and macroeconomic management 1950-1970.
Part 2 consists of: the passing of the Golden Age; the 1970s: wage explosions, oil shocks and inflation; conservative macroeconomics: the end of inflation and the rise of unemployment; and conservative microeconomics: rolling back the welfare state and privatisation.
Part 3 consists of: life behind the iron curtain; the communist economies from 1945 to 1985; and the transition from communism.
Part 4 consists of: beyond the first and second worlds; convergence and divergence; and the rise of East Asia and the divergence of fortunes among the poorer countries.
Finally, part 5 looks at the 1990s and the future.
Advanced Macroeconomics
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 2
The module completes the macroeconomics sequence, starting with a consideration of the policy implications of rational expectations. The macroeconomy is then opened up to international trade and capital movements: the operation of monetary and fiscal policies and the international transmission of disturbances under fixed and flexible exchange rates are contrasted, and the issues bearing on the choice of exchange-rate regime are explored. The major macroeconomic problems of hyperinflation, persistent unemployment and exchange-rate crises are examined. The module concludes by drawing together the implications of the analysis for the design and operation of macroeconomic policy.
Advanced Microeconomics
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 2
This module covers the topics of general equilibrium and welfare economics, including the important issue of market failure. General equilibrium is illustrated using Sen's entitlement approach to famines and also international trade. Welfare economics covers concepts of efficiency and their relationship to the market mechanism. Market failure includes issues such as adverse selection and moral hazard, and applications are drawn from health insurance, environmental economics and the second-hand car market.
Applied Economics Topics
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 2
This module introduces you to a range of applied topics that illustrate the use of economics principles learned at level two. The topics covered may vary from year to year and are based upon faculty interests and research. A typical topic might be the use of taxes or quotas to limit pollution, as in the US acid rain programme, limiting emissions of SO2. Alongside each lecture topic will be a class
devoted to that topic, involving discussion of the issues or some other kind of exercise.
Applied Mathematics for Economists
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 2
The primary aim of this module is to deepen your understanding of the most important mathematical techniques used in economic analysis through the use of applications, and to enable you to use these skills confidently and independently. The secondary aim is to enable you to understand more easily both the economic principles you are (or will be) applying in other modules and the mathematical principles that underlie the statistical and econometric methods encountered in other modules.
Applied Statistics for Finance and Economics
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 2
This module will introduce you to the empirical use of a variety of statistical methods used in the social sciences. A key objective of the module is to teach best statistical practice through the use, exploration and analysis of empirical data. Topics covered include: measuring skewness and kurtosis in empirical data and undertaking tests for normality, goodness-of-fit and non-parametric testing principles; ANOVA and experimental design; OLS and maximum likelihood estimation in the bivariate regression model; the linear probability and the logistic models; detrending, deseasonalising and forecasting using time series data; basic concepts in sample survey methods.
Macroeconomics 2
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 2
This module is concerned with two main topics. 'The long run' is an introduction to how economies grow, gradually raising the standard of living, decade by decade. Once we have the basic analysis in place, we can begin to explain why there are such huge disparities in living standards around the world. 'Expectations' is a deepening of the behavioural background to modelling, saving and investment decisions, emphasising the intrinsically forward-looking nature of saving and investment decisions and analysing the financial markets which coordinate these decisions.
Microeconomics 2
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 2
This module develops the economics principles learned in Microeconomics 1. Alternative market structures such as oligopoly and monopolistic competition are studied and comparisons drawn with perfect competition and monopoly. Decision-making under uncertainty and over multiple time periods is introduced, relaxing some of the restrictive assumptions made in the level 1 module. The knowledge gained is applied to such issues as investment in human capital (eg education), saving and investment decisions, insurance and criminal deterrence.
Statistics for Economics and Finance
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 2
This module introduces the statistical techniques used in economics, and involves computer-based applications. Topics covered include: summarising and plotting data, basic probability theory, hypothesis testing, correlation analysis, and bivariate
and multiple regression analysis. You will be introduced in greater detail to the EXCEL
spreadsheet package, which you will use for your assessed coursework.
Applied Econometrics
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 3
This module examines in greater depth topics covered in the Introduction to Econometrics module. The module explores the analysis of time series data with particular reference to unit root testing, cointegration and dynamic modelling and also examines the use of models with limited dependent variables (eg the probit model).
Econometrics
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
This module studies the application of statistical methods to economic data. The focus is on regression analysis based on the ordinary least squares (OLS) principle. Topics covered include model specification and the analysis of regression disturbance problems (eg autocorrelation and heteroscedasticity).
Further Statistics
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
This is a theory module that examines sampling distributions, inference, joint distributions, maximum likelihood estimation, and the classical testing principles relating to the likelihood ratio tests, wald and LM (or score) tests.
Applied Economics Dissertation
30 credits
Autumn & spring teaching, Year 3
On this module you will undertake a piece of applied research in economics, drawing on appropriate economic theory and empirical techniques to investigate a topic of interest. You can choose from a list of topics and will be provided with supervision by a member of faculty. In addition to supervision there are introductory lectures covering the process of research and writing up. You are expected to collect your own data and to use statistical software to analyse it, based on a suitable theoretical economic framework.
Behavioural Economics
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 3
During this module you will examine the psychological underpinnings of economic behaviour and examine recent theories and empirical results in behavioural economics. This forms the starting point in core economics modules and the dominant model of choice in economics, in which agents maximize expected utility given the information they possess and the choice set they have.
A growing body of empirical evidence has sought to challenge the assumption of individuals as rational economic agents; you will analyse this recent empirical evidence across a range of fields of economics and examine the new theories of economic behaviour.
Climate Change Economics
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 3
This module will deal with the economics of anthropogenic climate change, which apart from being the international policy issue of the present time will be a vehicle for the illustration of a wide range of ideas and techniques from economic analysis.
Corporate Finance
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
The aim of the module is to provide an introduction to issues in corporate finance and for you to become competent at addressing quantitative questions relating to the subject. Topics include: corporate balance sheets, portfolio analysis, risk and return, capital structure, dividend policy, options, international finance issues.
Economics of European Integration
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
The aim of this module is to cover economic and institutional aspects of the European integration process, focusing on the economic and also legal aspects of the European Union, internally and in its relations with partners, including prospective members. Customs union theory, the theory of monetary union, fiscal federalism and regional economics will be covered. You will be expected to understand the basic economics of integration, and also the interrelationship between economics, law and politics, as well as knowing how to track down up to date policy materials on the web.
Environmental Economics
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
International Trade
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 3
Labour Economics
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
The module explores how labour economics informs the discussion of many social issues such as the causes of unemployment; how technological change is shifting the distribution of jobs and wages; the impact of immigration on wages and employment; the impact of social security on the incentive to work; and the causes of gender and racial wage and employment gaps.
Monetary Theory and Policy
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
The module begins with Keynes' reformulation of monetary theory and the application of Keynes' ideas to economic depressions. The bulk of the module deals with monetary policy in practice: the role of medium-term macroeconomic targets in policy-making; how policy should respond to new information in the short term; money demand; the money supply process; and how financial market imperfections should affect policy-making. The last part of the module deals with banks, financial crises and financial regulation.
The Economics of Development
15 credits
Spring teaching, Year 3
This module addresses some of the major problems of economic development in low- and middle-income economies: the relationship between poverty, inequality and economic growth; long-run growth and structural change; microeconomic issues in agricultural development, including theories of peasant resource allocation and farm size and efficiency; market performance in the rural and informal sectors of less developed countries (LDCs); industrialisation and trade policy; the roles of monetary policy and foreign aid in resource mobilisation; stabilisation and structural adjustment; and investment in human capital.
Understanding Global Markets
15 credits
Autumn teaching, Year 3
The aim of this module is to give you an understanding of key features of the newly emerging globalised world economy. The module therefore comprises four components. The first of these analyses the conceptual background to understanding global markets, as well as examining the underlying changes in technology which have transformed economic relations between regions and nation states. The subsequent components then use that background in order to focus on the key characteristics and changes in: trade in goods and services, capital flow, and movement of people.
This module will cover the context of global markets: such as the emergence/development of global markets and understanding what can be meant by globalisation. We will also examine the impact of technological change on global markets (information technology, transport costs) as well as goods and services. Why do countries trade and why do countries integrate into regional blocs? We will study the evolution of patterns of trade: trade volumes, geographical patterns of trade (north-north, north-south, south-outh, regional groupings etc). We will look at vertical specialisation and value chains, outsourcing, offshoring, supply chaining. This module will also cover: the role of services in the global economy and the evolution of services trade; international capital flows; multinationals and foreign direct investment - theory and data; short run capital flows: global capital markets and origins of financial and exchange rate crises; labour migration, Why workers migrate: individual and family motives and the impact of migration on the home market and on the host market.

Paul's career perspective
‘I chose to study Economics because of my interest in macroeconomics and the mechanisms of monetary policy in particular. Along with an in-depth economic knowledge, my Sussex degree gave me an array of transferable skills that are highly valued in the job market and have proved to be crucial to my career so far.
‘While studying, I benefited from great teaching, support and advice from my tutors and also from their motivation. Talks from guest speakers, arranged by the Careers and Employability Centre, also came in handy in helping me choose my career path.
‘During my final year I was fortunate enough to earn a place on the graduate scheme of the insurance company RSA. In my role I’ve put my economic knowledge to good use in analysing global trade patterns and ascertaining where potential business opportunities lie.
‘I’m currently working in the strategic department but I’m also being trained to become a marine cargo underwriter– insuring high net worth goods in transit – where the analytical and problem-solving skills I developed while at Sussex will continue to be of great importance.’

Yasmin's career perspective
After graduating I was lucky enough to be offered a job at the UK financial services regulator, the Financial Services Authority. I believe my Sussex Economics degree was invaluable in preparing me for my chosen career, providing me with the skills and knowledge to succeed through the rigorous and competitive application process.
‘My degree gave me a technical grounding in economics but, more importantly, taught me how to use those tools to better understand and question the world we live in. This, combined with the naturally politically engaged nature of the Sussex student body, makes for an exciting learning environment. Sussex really encourages scrutiny of the economic consensus.
‘I thoroughly enjoyed my course and feel indebted to Sussex – it educated me in infinite ways, left me with a faith in the capacity to make a positive difference, and gave me the skills to thrive in a competitive jobs market.’
