More about Economics at The University of Sydney

Economics at Sydney has long-standing strengths in all the major areas of economics, as is expected of one of the leading economics departments in Australia. Our teaching is based on a willingness to go beyond any one theoretical perspective to provide students with a broad understanding of the study of economics.

There is a strong emphasis on both theoretical developments and applied issues. As economic policy and economic events play a central role in shaping the broad framework of work and society at every level, Economics at Sydney is involved in research and policy analysis in many crucial policy areas and issues.

Our graduates go on to specialist positions in Treasury, the Reserve Bank, other policy departments across the Commonwealth and state governments, international agencies, the financial markets and financial institutions, to head office roles in the corporate world, and to key positions in the not-for-profit sector.
