but she was not a economist!!!: "She arrived at Oxford in 1943 and graduated in 1947 with Second-Class Honours in the four-year Chemistry Bachelor of Science degree; in her final year she specialised in X-ray crystallography under the supervision of Dorothy Hodgkin.[12][13]
Roberts became President of the Oxford University Conservative Association in 1946.[14][15] She was influenced at university by political works such as Friedrich von Hayek's The Road to Serfdom (1944),[16] which condemned economic intervention by government as a precursor to an authoritarian state.[17]
After graduating, Roberts moved to Colchester in Essex to work as a research chemist for BX Plastics.[18] In 1948, she applied for a job at ICI, but was rejected after the personnel department assessed her as "headstrong, obstinate and dangerously self-opinionated".[Margaret Thatcher - Wikipedia]
