Overview

Bachelor of Economics - Professional Economics

Economists are experts in understanding how individuals, firms and governments make choices and the consequences of those choices for all constituents of society, both today and in the future.

The Professional Economics major at UWA is designed for students seeking to become professional economists and pursue careers as specialist economists in government and business, economic consultants, economic analysts and policy advisers.

Through this major, you’ll learn how apparently complex economic developments can be understood in terms of a set of simple but fundamental principles, such as the theory of choice. 

This economic approach can be applied to understanding topics as diverse as the economics of climate change, the valuation of currencies and other assets, the fairness of international trade, and the costs and benefits of different economic policies.

You’ll study microeconomic and macroeconomic frameworks to analyse economic problems and produce and communicate economic research for fellow economists, business professionals and policymakers.
