Career Opportunities

Economics graduates are employed by trading and merchant banks, stockbrokers, manufacturers and distributors, insurance companies, and a wide range of government organisations. Other options include journalism, teaching and international consulting.

After completion of an Honours or higher degree, graduates may call themselves a professional economist and usually work for companies, governments, international agencies, or as university lecturers. The Bachelor of Economics is also the first step for those who would like to take more advanced studies in economics and related fields.
