Coase Scholarships
How the Coase Scholarship was established
A generous endowment from the Nobel Prize-winning economist Professor Ronald Coase has enabled us to offer new scholarships to study a range of Economics courses at The University of Buckingham.
Coase was inspired by his undergraduate economics education and went on to make a major change to the way we look at the world. His radical analysis of markets and firms established whole new areas of economic enquiry: www.nobelprize.org/prizes/economic-sciences/1991/coase/facts/
