BA - Business Economics

There was a time when there were more jokes on economists than on blondes. Whatever the economists predicted, it never happened and what happened, economists failed to explain that too. But as the time passed, economics emerged from the ground to the heights where sky is the limit. Apart from studying how society distributes resources, Economists conduct research, work on terabytes of data, analyze economic trends, and forecast a wide variety of issues like unemployment levels, inflation, budget, stock markets, foreign exchange rates and even crime rates. Economics seeps deep where economists study the relationship between society, economy, nature and various events. These events might include terrorism, natural disasters, epidemics, revolutions or revolts which are connected to economics in an implicit way which only Economists can understand.
