The aim of the module is to provide students with a broad appreciation of a number of key economic principles.The module content includes:• the basic economic problem involving the issue of resource allocation and scarcity • consideration of alternative economic systems • supply, demand and elasticity concepts • market structures – perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition and oligopoly • the key issues of economic growth, inflation and unemployment and general macroeconomic policy.In-sessional English support is integrated throughout delivery, with weekly pre-module sessions developing subject-specific vocabulary, lexis, and academic phrases, and post-module sessions providing consolidation through comprehension checks, summarising, and strategy-building activities. This wraparound model ensures learners can access, engage with, and reflect on content confidently while developing the language and academic skills necessary for progression.
