Bachelor of Economics (Advanced)

Aspire to be a leader in business, policy or research? The Bachelor of Economics (Advanced) is a uniquely structured and specialised degree for students who want to stand out in their field.

Our advanced degree emphasises research and high-level analytical skills.

You will:

• interact with and learn from eminent researchers, notable economists from abroad, and high-ranking economists practising in the private and public sector
• have the opportunity to partner with an academic mentor who'll support and encourage your intellectual development
• access three unique courses specifically designed for high-achieving students
• benefit from small-group work, special activities and events with distinguished visitors

Where could it take you? You might specialise in maths and statistics and become an econometrician, working in logistics and modelling transport infrastructure. You could write pioneering policy around education, taxation or mental health. Perhaps you'll use behavioural economics to encourage people to recycle, or research the potential impacts of a universal basic income.

Note: You must maintain a GPA of 5.0 or you'll be required to transfer to the Bachelor of Economics. Conversely, if you initially enrol in the Bachelor of Economics you may be eligible to transfer into the advanced degree after one, two or three semesters if you achieve a high enough GPA.
