I decided to pursue a dual degree in Data Science and Economics since I was aware of the mutually beneficial nature of these two disciplines. Economics provides an essential framework for comprehending the socioeconomic context of data, which enhances my data analysis. Data science also gives me the tools I need to use data-driven approaches to solve economic problems. As a foreign student, this dual degree gives me the global perspective I need to make a significant contribution to economic growth and data-driven solutions, putting me in a position to be a flexible professional prepared to survive in the data-centric world.

A Bachelor of Arts with a major in Economics is available through the Department of Economics. The course uses mathematical and statistical methods to give education on economic institutions as well as a strong foundation in analytical tools and application fields of economics. Students gain knowledge of how the price system functions, how consumers, businesses, and governmental organisations distribute limited resources, as well as the factors that influence national production, inflation, unemployment, economic growth, and global commerce.
