Joint CTaLE-Stone Centre & Royal Economic Society Report I September 2025
This research project provides a snapshot of how those teaching on economics degrees in the UK have responded to this technological transformation in their assessment design and proposes next steps for such degrees. The research addresses a critical need: ensuring that economics graduates remain attractive to employers and that our degrees retain their value in an GenAI-transformed world. This is not merely about adapting to new technology; it represents a fundamental rethinking of what an economics degree should be in preparing students for their future lives and careers.
