Building upon thirty years experience of delivering high quality degree courses the Department has expanded its portfolio of degrees to allow candidates to pursue their individual interests along specific routes towards a named title of award. A first year programme, common to all domestic routes, lays a solid foundation of analytical, quantitative skills and historical background which all students require. The BSc Business Economics route pursues a similar pathway but emphasises a quantitative approach to the material being analysed. BSc Students are expected to follow a more prescribed set of subjects building on a more rigourous quantitative foundation. The International Economic Studies route offers a non-quantitative treatment of a wide range of interesting and challenging subjects analysing issues drawn from both the western developed economies and the developing economies from across the globe.
International routes offer students the opportunity to study French or Spanish alongside economics.
A fourth year is spent at the university of Bourgogne, Caen or Murcia dependent upon the subjects studied. Our usual UCAS offer is for 14 points.
