Economics, Statistics and Mathematics with a Year in Industry

Study level:
Undergraduate
Awarded by:
Queen Mary, University of London

Course summary

Fascinated by data? Interested in what’s going on in the world around you? This degree combines economics, statistics, and mathematics to prepare you for roles where you’ll apply quantitative techniques to real-world challenges.

The programme is jointly delivered by the School of Economics and Finance and the School of Mathematical Science, so you’ll learn from experts across both fields. Many of our teaching staff also have practical experience and work closely with industry organisations including HM Treasury, the Debt Management Office, and the Bank of England.

Analyse real-time data

Kick off your studies by exploring key areas in each subject, like macroeconomics and quantitative analysis. Then zone in on statistical methods, modelling and econometrics. With our extensive choice of optional modules, you can also explore hot topics in the sector such as cryptography, generative AI, or big data.

As well as theory, you’ll perfect your practical skills in our Bloomberg trading room. Here you’ll use the same kit used by industry practitioners. All of the skills you learn will be invaluable, whatever field of economics you decide to work in

Queen Mary University of London welcomes applications from students currently studying Level 3 BTEC qualifications and will consider you for entry to the majority of our undergraduate courses. The typical entry requirements will vary according to the course you are applying for. Some of our courses require specific subject knowledge which you may not be able to cover as part of a Level 3 BTEC qualification and we may therefore require additional Level 3 qualifications to ensure that you are suitably prepared for relevant courses. A small number of our courses do not accept BTEC qualifications for entry, either as a standalone qualification, or in combination with other qualifications at Level 3. Information on our typical entry requirements and guidance for applying can be found at http://www.qmul.ac.uk/undergraduate/entry/btec/ If you are at all unsure about the acceptability of your BTEC qualification for entry, please contact the Admissions team for individual advice (admissions@qmul.ac.uk).
