The Department of Economics carries out research into most of the major fields of microeconomics, macroeconomics and econometrics. The approach taken is flexible, and the research interests of members of the Department span theoretical, applied and policy-oriented subjects.The Department hosts a successful research centre, the Centre for Market and Public Organisation (CMPO). The CMPO was established in 1998 to study the impact of incentives on organisations, with a focus on the public sector. Its research agenda has since broadened to cover the wider impact of policy on the users of public services. The Centre is funded jointly by the ESRC and the Leverhulme Trust.
Most research is carried out within two main research areas:
* Theoretical and applied microeconomics, with strong links to the CMPO research centre. Fields of work include industrial organisation, labour economics, health economics and microeconometrics
* Macroeconomics, growth and development. Fields of work include monetary policy, economic growth, development economics and political economy
