The degree in Economics provides both theoretical and practical knowledge enabling accurate analysis of the economic conditions that surround us. Graduates in Economics from the UPF must be able to understand the interrelation between economics and society, consider economic problems from a global perspective and how to resolve them on a local scale; must be able to relate the various aspects of an economic system; must be able to assess the implications of economic policy decisions, and must be able to give a response to the economic problems arising in society in general and the various units interacting within it, such as institutions, private companies and the various economic sectors.
Contents
Basic and compulsory subjects such as Mathematics, Introduction to Game Theory, Introduction to Economics, Introduction to Company Law and Introduction to Financial Accounting, among others, which are essential to knowledge of economics and business, are taught during the first year of the degree. The various areas are covered in more depth in the second year: these include microeconomics, macroeconomics, probability, statistics, econometrics and accounting analysis. In the third and fourth year, students must take a total of 120 credits in both compulsory subjects in the economics area (International Economics, The Public Sector and Industrial Organisation, among others) as optional subjects in the various areas of economics and business.
Up to 40 university mobility credits can be counted as optional credits or, providing that they have been recognised beforehand, as compulsory third and fourth credits or the end-of-degree dissertation, and can be taken in the third and fourth years. The structure of the studies in the final two years is designed to facilitate this mobility.
The external internship is optional, can be undertaken in the third or fourth year and is worth 14 credits.
The credits for the total progress made are defined at both the end of the first cycle and the end of the second cycle; in the third term of the second year, this is the Seminar Paper (5 credits) and in the fourth year it is the End-of-Degree Dissertation (6 credits).
