School of Economics

Welcome to the School of Economics at the University of Adelaide, a member of the Australian 'Group of Eight' universities.

Our School has a strong reputation in teaching, and we offer courses across many fields. Our academic staff have world class reputations for their research in fields of applied economics, macroeconomics and microeconomic theory and econometrics. Their research experience helps guide their teaching and the results of their work are presented and explained to students.

We are committed to providing a high quality experience to all our students. Our courses are based on face to face teaching, often in relatively small groups. The School provides not only professional course advice and other support for learning, but also works to provide students with opportunities for a stimulating social environment.

Economics is an international School. Many overseas students participate in Economics courses. Local students can also take advantage of options for studying abroad. The internationalisation of our classroom offers benefits all-round, and relationships established are now at the basis of life-long associations. Our curricula, too, keep up to date with international developments.

Our graduates have a strong track records of successful careers. Recent graduates are working in government departments, the business sector and in private research institutions.

The School also has an active alumni network in Australia and in economies in its region and we keep in contact with graduates throughout their careers.
