Grow your future as an expert in two areas that affect the whole world: the global food and resource industries. Food production is a global need. But much is governed by the economics of natural resources. This Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Food and Resource Economics degree focuses on the importance of food production to New Zealand and the world’s economy.

 

Plant the seeds of a rewarding career based on understanding global value chains, food economics and policy, market structures and performance alongside the economics of natural resources, development and trade. This might sound like a complex mix now. But you’ll graduate with the skills and knowledge to navigate the future of industries that are vitally important to humanity. 

 

How you’ll grow

• Nurture in-depth analytical skills alongside the knowledge of markets, natural resources and value chains.

• Develop your potential into becoming a professional economist in the global food and resource industries.

• Have an unforgettable experience and expand your expertise still further by studying part of your degree abroad through our LincOE exchange programme.
