Welcome to the Department of Economics, Mathematics and Statistics
Our teaching is informed by the latest research and by the needs of employers. We offer a wide selection of graduate, undergraduate and 'conversion' courses in economics, finance, mathematics and statistics. In addition we also provide customised in-house training to various government departments and city firms.
The Department brings together research and teaching in economics, finance, mathematics and statistics in a single Department which creates significant inter-disciplinary synergies.
The success of this strategy was confirmed in the 2008 RAE (Research Assessment Exercise). Demonstrating just how actively engaged in research the majority of our staff are, over 90% of Departmental staff were entered, and 70% of the work submitted was ranked of international excellence (3* or 4*).
