The Department of Economics at Strathclyde work closely with the Strathclyde Business School and the Scottish Graduate Programme in Economics to provide excellence in teaching, research, and knowledge exchange.
The Department of Economics' specialism is in applied policy-relevant research. Faculty members have expertise in applied micro- and macroeconomics as well as applied econometrics. We also have a small team which forms part of a much larger cross-university specialism in energy and the environment.
The Department is home to the Fraser of Allander Institute, which has for over 40 years been an authority on economic policy and the Scottish economy. The FAI ensures that our academic research has real impact in the policy and business communities.
