Economics in Oxford
Where great economists are shaped…
Can you think of anything that isn’t touched by economics? It plays a prominent role in pretty much anything we do – from the cost of a pint of milk to the rates we pay on a mortgage. This Oxford summer course in economics not only teaches the fundamentals around how markets work, but it encourages you to go off and form your own arguments.
You’ll certainly be in good company in our city. Oxford is well-known for its contribution to the field. For a start, the grandfather of free market economic thought, Adam Smith, was himself Oxford alumni – as was the governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney. So, if you want to know your macroeconomics from your microeconomics then you’ve definitely come to the right place.

"The best lesson I have had so far was at the beginning of the course when we studied Game Theory, and when we did presentations in class about shops or platforms that we had to imagine ourselves."

"My mentor, Mr. Christian Holm has been an absolute pleasure. I always look forward to his lessons, not only for my passion for economics but because I feel Mr. Holm has been great at dissecting complicated and large ideas, making them simpler and easier to digest."

"Inside the classroom we have learnt a great deal about a wide variety of topics such as game theory, evaluation, supply and demand, inflation and interest rates, allocation of resources which all fall under macroeconomic as well as microeconomics."
