A BA in Economics is an undergraduate bachelor’s degree focused on understanding how societies make choices about scarce resources. It provides a foundational understanding of micro and macroeconomics, international trade, and financial systems, developing skills in critical thinking, data analysis, and communication. Unlike a BSc in Economics, a BA typically involves less mathematical rigor, focusing more on the social and policy implications of economic decisions, and can be a suitable path for students interested in careers in public service, law, or policy-making.Â
