Introducing MA Economics and Mathematics

This combined programme complements the basic grounding in mathematical techniques provided within Economics, with a more thorough and rigorous development of mathematical principles.

Who is the programme for?

The programme provides an excellent background if you want to pursue a relatively technical career in an area such as:

  • finance
  • insurance (including actuarial work)

It is also suitable if you would like to proceed to graduate study of economics.

How will I learn?

Courses are taught through a combination of:

  • lectures
  • seminars
  • tutorials
  • workshops
  • web-based learning

Mathematics teaching

Year 1 mathematics lectures are usually interactive. Our lecturers use online voting systems and encourage small group discussions to improve your understanding of core material.

Lectures in later years follow a more 'traditional' lecturing style, but do occasionally incorporate the voting system.

Mathematics lectures are also supported by workshops, our small-group teaching sessions. These sessions give you an opportunity to practise applying the concepts learnt in lectures, and develop your understanding further.

In workshops, you will work with five or six other students, and a tutor will be on hand to answer questions and support you.

How will I be assessed?

You will be assessed by exams and coursework, including:

  • problem sets
  • essays
  • project reports
  • presentations

In Year 4, you will complete an honours dissertation.

Career opportunities

Our graduates are highly regarded by employers. Studying a joint honours degree enables you to develop a wider range of transferable skills. It also opens up more varied employment opportunities.

Many of our graduates have entered the finance sector and some large financial firms actively recruit Edinburgh graduates.

The skills you will develop through the study of both subjects will equip you for a broad range of careers, including but not limited to:

  • accountancy
  • business
  • management and consultancy
  • working for aid agencies
  • not-for-profit organisations and government departments
  • software engineering
  • logistics
  • education
