The IB Economics syllabus covers key areas including:
-
Microeconomics
-
Macroeconomics
-
International Economics
-
Development Economics

Students explore economic theories, real-world applications, and develop critical thinking through analysis of economic issues at both HL and SL levels.

The IB Economics Internal Assessment (IA) consists of three commentaries based on different sections of the syllabus:
-
Microeconomics Commentary: Analyses a real-world issue using microeconomic concepts.
-
Macroeconomics Commentary: Explores an economic issue related to macroeconomic theories.
-
International/Development Economics Commentary: Examines a topic from international or development economics.
Each commentary must be based on a recent news article, not exceeding 800 words, and demonstrate clear economic analysis. The IA counts for 20% of the final grade in Standard Level (SL) and 30% in Higher Level (HL).
