hi!

I am currently in my second year at studying at Sussex and whilst I don't do Economics myself, I have a few friends that study this as a single honours or as part of a joint programme! Economics at Sussex is quite popular and I have heard a lot of good things about the course and how many people enjoy what they study.
In terms of diversity at Sussex, I would say generally speaking, it is more diverse than perhaps some other top universities but there is still room for improvement. As an ethnic minority student, I actually did not find it too difficult to meet people of a similar background to me. I recommend joining societies as this is one of the best ways to meet people and worked well for me!

To have a look at career prospects, i recommend having a look at our website http://www.sussex.ac.uk/economics/ugstudy/careers - this section tells you a little about what kind of jobs you can end up in.
Hope this was helpful!

Is Sussex any good for law?

Hello, I am not currently studying Law at Sussex, but I know a number of Law students that are, or have really enjoyed their courses. As far as I know, Sussex is not at the top of the League Tables for Law, but this does not necessarily suggest it is not still a great place to study Law! As a current student, I can say that I have definitely been impressed with the course content, quality of teaching, job opportunities, and various forms of support offered to students at Sussex. Thus, I would always say that there are many factors to consider when applying to any university for any course, including whether you simply like the type of modules offered for Law at any university. Therefore, I would encourage you to have a look through our course options and module selection for Law and see if you like the sound of the course content being offered :smile:

hello!

Just adding to Kasia, everything that was mentioned I pretty much agree with! I study Politics but the Politics department falls under LPS (stands for Law, Politics and Sociology) and a lot of my friends study Law. It is a very popular degree studied here and many people I know that study it do enjoy it - the only thing I would add is Law students have mentioned to me how this is a challenging degree with lots of readings and hard examinations (which is most likely the case wherever you go). Just make sure to do research and see if Law is strongly where your interest lies :smile:

Best of Luck!
