Economics and business

Observing the satisfaction of needs and wants through the allocation of scarce resources which have alternative uses is the fundamental study of economics. Using principles of demand and supply, Square College students will be able to tell you how an economy is doing, from it’s trade surplus or deficit to it’s gross domestic product (GDP) and gross national income (GNI)

Economists find themselves often making big decisions for companies, organisations and even countries. Economics and business students learn about domestic and external shocks to the economy, with weird and complex scenarios like how the UK could navigate Brexit.
