Early life

He was born in Monifieth in Angus, the third child of the Rev Robert MacGregor (1841-1915) minister of the Free Church of Scotland, and his wife, Lillias Hannah Hutchison (1842-1920).[2]

He then studied for a further degree in economics at Trinity College, Cambridge under Alfred Marshall; he gained a BA in 1901 and was elected President of the Cambridge Union the following year.[3] In 1904 he was elected a Fellow of Trinity.

From 1908 to 1915, MacGregor was Professor of Economic and Political Science at the University of Leeds. In the First World War from 1915 to 1918, he served in the Royal Engineers in France and Italy, and was awarded the Military Cross for conspicuous gallantry.

In 1919, he became the Stanley Jevons Professor of Political Economy at Manchester, and from 1921 to 1945 was Drummond Professor of Political Economy at Oxford.
