Universities seek economics applicants who can analyse complex systems, explore global contexts, and reflect on how economic choices shape policy, society, and behaviour in ways that extend well beyond markets and money.
The university primer helps students develop a more critical understanding of economics, engage with the latest issues, and stand out as candidates.
University primer – sample version (performing arts)
The university primer offers a wide selection of mini-lessons and other resources that explore and unpack the latest issues and events related to the course, enabling students to link learning to the real-world, develop a more critical eye, and demonstrate subject interest.
The advice on the final slide of the presentation provides specific advice on how the story will help to deepen their knowledge, introduce them to key thinkers, and relate to wider issues going on in the world. Check back every month for new stories. To access all the UP padlets join us here!
