历史和经济学的联合学位为正式学习这两个学科提供了难得的机会。尽管经济学关注影响资源分配的机制和动机，但历史却增加了对政治和其他变化形式及变化源的关注。历史提供了有关变化为何会发生的具体见解，并着重于思想产生和使用的不同环境，该程度将为您提供发展定性和定量分析技能，结合概念的机会经济学的数学方法以及历史的上下文和档案方法。
A joint degree in history and economics provides a rare opportunity formally to study these two disciplines together. While economics is concerned with the mechanisms and incentives affecting resource allocation, history adds its concerns with wider political and other forms and sources of change. History provides specific insights into why change occurs when it does and it emphases the differing contexts in which ideas emerge and in which they are used. This degree will provide you with an opportunity to develop both your qualitative and quantitative analytical skills, to combine the conceptual and mathematical approaches of economics with the contextual and archival approaches of history.
