About this course

How can economic ideas and principles help us to understand how organisations work and industries function? What role do economic principles play in management decisions and in the analysis of strategic interactions among businesses and organisations? Unlike conventional management courses, at Essex you analyse the economics of a business or organisation and investigate how they operate and behave.

You develop your abilities in economics and gain confidence in applying them to organisational management, as well as receiving expert training in quantitative research methods. You gain a thorough understanding of how businesses function and develop your analytical, modelling and research skills through studying topics including:

  • Managing people and practices

  • Marketing

  • Monopoly power and regulation

  • Applying economic techniques to managing new technologies

  • The impact of business decisions on products, prices, and social welfare

    Management economics gives you a valuable grounding in economics, with a particular focus on how companies work. We provide you with a greater understanding of the how firms operate, teaching you how resources are allocated within a company, why a company is structured in a particular way, and how these structures affect the overall economy.

    This ensures that you graduate having received a strong training in management economics.
