• For those students who decide to study an Economics Honors course there is a wealth of opportunity awaiting them once they graduate. Economics graduates are to be found in every industry imaginable. Many work in a line of business that they thought had nothing to do with their specialist subjects at university.
• Of course it is obvious that you will find economists in insurance, investment and banking, or in the retail industry, but they are also employed in places like the communications sector, the world of manufacturing, and in transport. There are also posts available within governments and their subsidiary agencies, not only as employees but in consultant roles too.
• The foremost skill that employers from these industries, and others, appreciate about economics students is their ability to view problems on a larger global scale, if needed - the art of seeing 'the bigger picture'. They also value the research skills, decision making expertise and methodical approach that an economist brings to the table.
