You will learn how people and institutions make decisions under conditions of constraint, such as time and knowledge, and under various influences such as social pressure. There are many practical implications of insights from behavioural economics and the field is widely accepted to deliver a powerful, cost-effective approach to improving human welfare.

Commercial organisations have long known the limitations of individual decision making and routinely use this knowledge in their commercial practices.

A strong postgraduate education in behavioural economics will allow you to work in a variety of roles in the private or public sector that require a solid understanding of human behaviour.

A developed understanding of behavioural economics gives you a broad, real-world perspective to inform your professional interests and future ambitions.

Our programme is also an ideal pathway to a PhD in Economics or Psychology.

Who is this course for?

If you have recently graduated in economics, psychology, a related social science or quantitative discipline, this programme could be the next step. We will help you develop the relevant modern skills and knowledge needed for a career in the world of behavioural economics.

If you love mathematics, especially modelling and probability, and you are interested in the use of coding, data and IT to solve real-world problems, then you will find this course ideal for you.

As you would expect, the Data Analytics and Actuarial Science undergraduate course sets you up for a career in actuarial science. However, the course will also prepare you for a career in the wider fields of data analysis and risk management, or in investment management or financial analysis.

Traditionally, actuaries have used data to solve problems in the financial risk area. However, the world of finance is being transformed by two major trends – the increase in the volume and types of data and the focus on risk management. This means some problems are now best solved using different data analysis techniques.

This course prepares you for these new challenges. You will explore the traditional actuarial approach to risk management but you’ll also learn about some of the newest areas of data science, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, and their practical application to finance and insurance.

As well as developing your understanding of mathematics, probability, statistics, economics and IT you’ll look into probability modelling, data analysis and the financial markets. You’ll also be able to demonstrate your skills and your ability to communicate your findings in your final year project.

Build a unique knowledge base in global governance and develop relevant professional competencies to support your employability. Our Diplomacy and Foreign Policy MA is designed to improve your analytical abilities and your capacity to critically evaluate foreign policy, diplomacy and decision-making.

You will benefit in various ways from this Diplomacy and Foreign Policy MA. Your analytical capacity and ability to critically evaluate connections between complex issues and foreign policy and diplomacy will be significantly enhanced.

We will help you to develop confidence in addressing how states meet their economic and political foreign policy goals, how foreign policy and diplomacy impacts global conflict, and how diplomatic and foreign policy forums have evolved.

Confidence in your critical abilities will allow you to make an immediate impact in the workplace after you graduate.

Studying civil engineering is the first step in an exciting career. You’ll develop technical expertise as well as skills in strategic thinking, innovation and communication.

Your professional training includes structural, geotechnical and hydraulic engineering. We focus on innovation and sustainability, helping you develop environmentally sound solutions to infrastructure problems.

Our degrees are accredited, meaning your qualification will be recognised for its quality and relevance.

• Benefit from exceptional industry involvement in the degree programme, including projects set by industry and guest lectures from practising engineers
• Study in world leading test facilities, including our flagship Geotechnical Centrifuge Facility, where you conduct research and test your theories
• Get hands-on experience with concrete casting, soil testing equipment and centrifuges
• Take an optional placement year to boost your employability. Recent placements have included Balfour Beatty, AECOM, Arup, Interserve and Network Rail
• Enjoy easy access to leading civil and structural engineering contractors and consultants thanks to our central London location
• Apply to transfer to our integrated master’s MEng degree ;if you pass the second year of your BEng above 60%, fast-tracking your progress to Chartered Engineer status.

Your learning will bridge three research and clinical disciplines.

Clinical neuroscience will give you an understanding of mental health and neurological, psychological or psychiatric illness via their neural and cognitive antecedents.

Social neuroscience will let you investigate brain processes that help us communicate, feel, learn, and interact with others.

Cognitive neuroscience will enable you to explore human cognitive functions such as memory, perception and language in healthy and clinical states.

Who is this course for?

You will be well suited to our programme if you have an undergraduate degree in psychology or a related discipline and want to advance your knowledge and gain skills that are highly valued in research and clinical professions.

We give you a strong preparation for further professional training in clinical psychology. You will also be well equipped for progression to PhD studies in fields such as cognitive neuroscience or social neuroscience, and to research positions outside academia.

The International Business pathway should appeal particularly to you if you expect to work in multinational businesses. Or in other areas where contemporary issues affect the way business takes place globally. You should be prepared to consider the different impact of management concepts in different parts of the world and to apply these to practical examples.

This course gives you a broad understanding of business within an international context. As part of this degree you must spend some time at one of our overseas partners and use this experience to contribute to your understanding of management concepts.

You’ll be able to reflect on this international experience within your final-year project. You’ll discuss issues related to the global economy, and will be encouraged to consider the particular impact of management concepts in different parts of the world.

Explore new advances in financial economics through economic theory and applied quantitative methods to uncover a variety of dynamic and rewarding employment opportunities. You will develop an advanced and balanced understanding of modern economic theory as it relates to the ever-changing world of finance.

We help you develop new and existing skills, significantly enhance your specialist knowledge and prepare you for relevant work.

You gain exposure to the regulatory and policy aspects of finance with world-class academic training in theory, quantitative methods and a selection of applied modules.

Our teaching covers areas including financial markets, the roles of major financial institutions and deep empirical investigations.

A developed understanding of modern economic theory relevant to financial topics gives you a wide perspective to inform your future ambitions.

The dissertation track is also an ideal pathway to an Economics or Finance PhD.
