If you don't understand economics then it leads to all sorts of poor
decisions.
I think modern students are pretty sussed on their own personal economics.
When you're going to have to pay back up to 27K for a 3 year course you're not
going to dick about with some jack of all trades degree if potential employers
want specialists.
Anyone going into management needs to understand large scale economics,
That would be at board level. The average project level manager just needs to
know how to use Word and powerpoint and how to pass the buck down the heirarchy
effectively.
And one person's jack of all trades is another's Renaissance man.
Sure, if they're jack AND master of all trades. No one is going to hire a
plumber who "knows a bit" and bodges it together with blu tak.
