Undergraduate Economics degrees at Goldsmiths
Studying economics at Goldsmiths offers an innovative approach to a traditional subject: one that focuses on the social, political and business challenges of an evolving world.
Why study Economics at Goldsmiths?
- Our degrees provide rigorous training in economic theory and real-world applications, and allow you to develop a broad understanding of the discipline or to specialise by combining economics with data science, marketing, law or management
- You’ll learn to evaluate arguments and evidence from different sources – and to use different theories and concepts together with quantitative methods – to formulate and address questions about crucial real-world problems
- As the financial and political hub of the UK, London provides the ideal backdrop to study economics, and provides access to business leaders, economists and policy practitioners
I absolutely loved my time on this course. Not only did I receive all the help I could have asked for from my lecturers, but I was also presented with plenty of opportunities to expand my CV and explore my personal economic passions through a range of modules. I wouldn't change anything about my experience, and can't recommend Goldsmiths and this course strongly enough.

Why choose Goldsmiths, University of London?
Goldsmiths was founded in 1891 and has been part of the University of London for nearly 120 years. Alongside this history comes an innovative and creative approach to the subjects you can study, and a commitment to social and environmental justice.
As a Goldsmiths student you'll enjoy a single-site campus in New Cross, South East London. It's in Zone 2 and just 10 minutes by train to Central or East London. So you can access the best of the world's top student city while still enjoying a friendly and supportive student community.
The atmosphere on campus is wonderful. Being in a space where art can be studied alongside economics was interesting as I felt it stimulated different parts of my brain. Being here has helped me to think longer-term about the sort of role I wish to play in society.
