Economics summer school

13-15 year olds will explore macroeconomics through Adam Smith’s theories, dive into microeconomics with concepts like elasticity and trade, and examine market forces. The course culminates in a project presentation and a workshop on university applications and career paths in economics, business, and management.

16-18 year olds will tackle advanced topics, including econometrics and statistical methods, development economics and poverty reduction, and auction theory using game theory principles. The programme concludes with a project presentation and a session on university applications and career opportunities.

You don’t need prior skills, experience, or learning to take the Economics course. But having an active interest in the subject is valuable. Your expert tutor will provide work for you to complete before your economics summer course starts.

Motivated participants aged 13-18 are best suited for the Economics courses. Those looking to take economics, business, and management at the university will have a tremendous advantage over competitors.

Human beings have unlimited wants, but we live in a world of limited goods. So how do you go about distributing resources? There are two major categories of economics: macro and micro. Macroeconomics looks at the economy as a whole  from a collective perspective, while microeconomics examines persons’ behaviour as consumers and producers from an individual’s perspective. Studying economics is important because it helps you understand how the market behaves. Every business needs to understand what factors affect prices, demand, and supply. Otherwise, they won’t know how to reach their  target consumers - resulting in low profit. Studying economics also gives you an insight into your own spending habits. You’ll be surprised how a simple grocery trip can be full of economic principles at work. Awareness will help you make wise investments. And avoid pitfalls that get you into a cycle of debt.
