Economía
Interest in economic matters is increasing with the globalization of markets, improved communications, and the ongoing improvement in living and consumption conditions demanded by all societies.
Economic studies facilitate an understanding of how the economic system works. They provide access to an education characterized by an appropriate combination of flexibility and specialization, opening up the possibility of a wide range of professional development. Understanding the mechanisms that explain the behavior of economic agents and the process by which their expectations are formed equips students to work in various areas of public administration, as well as in private companies.
New students should have an interest in economic and social issues, such as the causes of unemployment or inflation, and the functioning of markets and economic institutions.
It is advisable to have numerical and abstract reasoning skills, as well as basic knowledge of the English language, mathematics, and statistics; to have developed deductive skills; to be innovative, organized, methodical, and planning, with the ability to adapt and improve, and an entrepreneurial spirit. Also, to have a good predisposition to interpersonal and group interaction, that is, to teamwork and collaboration.
The profession of economist is entrusted with a diverse range of functions conferred upon it by the Statute of the Economics Profession. This Statute empowers economists to study and provide technical solutions to problems in general or business economics, in any of its aspects: public economics, economic analysis, international economics, development economics, social and environmental economics, quantitative economics, sectoral economics, and labor economics.
More specifically, the professional profile of the degree in Economics can be developed in the following areas:
- Research and planning services and statistical and foresight institutes.
- Public administration: local and regional government technicians and commercial and economic technicians from the State and Social Security.
- Taxation.
- International organizations and foreign trade.
