Bachelor of Arts in Economics and History

Program Overview

From trade and industry to living standards and medicine, economic issues have often been at the heart of historical change. This varied and dynamic degree gives you a deep understanding of economic issues in the modern world, as well as an insight into how societies change over time.

Modules will introduce you to key concepts in both subjects, such as historiography, economic theory and statistics. Then you’ll build on this when you choose from an impressive range of optional modules spanning periods, cultures and sectors.

You could study anything from transport economics and international trade to ethics and the global banking sector, alongside the Industrial Revolution, the British East India Company, and decolonisation. It’s a fantastic opportunity to discover new perspectives on history and the present, and to gain a broad base of skills that employers seek.

The University of Leeds has plenty of useful resources for economic historians. The world class Brotherton Library holds a wide variety of manuscript, archive and early printed material in its Special Collections. The University Library's Special Collections includes extensive records of businesses in the region dating back to the Industrial Revolution. The University is also home to the M&S Archive, one of the biggest collections in the UK for the history of retail and consumption.

Career opportunities

You’ll be able to analyse both quantitative and qualitative data, and you’ll have strong research and problem-solving skills. You’ll be comfortable working both independently and within a team, and you’ll have the organisational skills needed to manage two very different subjects.

Graduates have gone onto careers in diverse areas as a result. They include business and finance, management, the civil service, journalism, the media, law, education and the charity sector. Many others go on to postgraduate study. Read more about Graduate destinations.
