Mark Pulsford and Ross Purves (UCL)

Title: The health, status and future of undergraduate Education programmes: what do programme leaders think? Some preliminary results from a BESA-funded research project.

Interested in studying an LLM at Warwick? Come along to the University PG Open Day to chat with staff and students and find out more about postgraduate study.

Over the past few years we have found that students from Warwick’s Economics Department have highly valued the opportunity to meet with employers and former students of the Department to explore the range of economics related careers.

For the 2020-21 academic year, we will be hosting a new series of webinars covering a range of topics. We hope that you take this opportunity to learn about the skills that employers value in economics graduates and find out more about how to apply for the positions that they offer in their companies.

Please note that these events are for current students only. You will be able to find the link to join the webinars in Tabula or in an email that has been sent to you.
