Student Profile
Barra Roantree
(BESS Graduate)
“At the time I was filling out my CAO form, the vast
majority of commentators in the media were promising
a “soft landing” to the housing bubble, while politicians
of all creeds pledged to continue increasing expenditure
whilst lowering taxes. Studying economics will change
the way you look at the world, giving you the confidence
and analytical ability to challenge the consensus, and
put forward sound arguments supported by empirical
evidence.
The most common entry into economics is through BESS
(TR081), where in first year you will be exposed to a
broad range of disciplines and ideas beyond the purely
commercial, leaving you with a well rounded education.
Both first and second year introduce the concepts at the
heart of economics, so there is no need to have studied
it at secondary school. The final two years of the degree
allow you develop specific interests in the discipline
(finance, international economics, policy issues etc.), while
gaining an in depth understanding of the core theories and
methods of economics.
There are few subjects which offer as promising career
prospect as economics. You will gain unique insights
which can be applied to public, civic, or commercial life.
At Trinity, you’ll develop lifelong friendships while taking
advantage of the unique society culture the University has
to offer, be it through writing for (or editing) the
Student
Economic Review,
debating in the Hist, or writing for one
of the College newspapers.
With all that has occurred over the last four years, there
couldn’t be a more interesting time to study economics.”
