Here's what University of East Anglia says about its Economics, Behaviour and Data Science course.
Overview Are you interested in how the choices of individuals and firms combine to drive the modern global economy? Are you also fascinated by human behaviour, and do you enjoy analysing numbers? BSc Economics, Behaviour and Data Science will provide you with thorough training in economic analysis, with an additional focus on behavioural economics and data science. You’ll be equipped with the knowledge and tools to explore human behaviour, and understand how people’s decisions drive firms, cities, or even whole governments. You’ll benefit particularly from UEA’s expertise in behavioural economics. Our graduates go on to successful careers in business, finance and other fields.
This degree is ideal for you if you have a curious and questioning nature. Economics is a far broader subject than most people realise, and our course enables you to develop your own areas of interest. You'll combine a rounded training in economics with a focus on behavioural economics, programming and data analysis. You'll study microeconomics, macroeconomics, economic modelling and statistics, along with a broad range of optional modules offered by the School of Economics.
At UEA, you’ll receive the very best support and guidance through a dedicated module called STEPS (Skills, Training, Employability, Progression, and Support), as well as through your academic adviser. A university-wide Learning Enhancement team is also on hand to help you with mathematics, writing, critical-thinking, revision, and time management skills.
Our curriculum prioritises employability, offering you a syllabus rich in real world examples and practical applications. Guest lectures by employers as well as numerous employability events, including: workshops, networking and alumni events, one-on-one meetings with top professionals, job coaching and training, nationwide competitions, internships and consulting opportunities, and mentoring by former alumni.
Our dynamic community offers you plenty of opportunities to connect and get involved. The student-led Economics Society is the perfect place for you to network and socialise with fellow students, whilst our Staff-Student Liaison Committee gives you a say in the future direction and every-day running of the School. The Norwich Economic Publications (a combination of a journal and a Podcast run by students) and the ECO Blog are outlets where you can share your enthusiasm about what you study.

Overall id say that the inversity is okay, the course is good however the lectuerers arent the best and often times lectures feel quite pointless.

Accommodation is definitely good and like a hotel. The library is open 24/7 and the campus kitchen has very good food. My room is amazing I opted for en suite room which is better than others. We share a kitchen which is ok as it can get dirty quickly. But other than that all is good

My course is pretty relaxing at the moment as it contains a foundation year. Itu2019s pretty easy as it sets you into the basics of computer science. The lectures are easy to understand and follow the workload is manageable and you get support where itu2019s needed
