Economics and International Relations with Year Abroad BSc (Econ) (Hons)

BSc Economics and International Relations with Year Abroad:Trade wars, development, Brexit: it is impossible to separate economics from international relations. Our Economics and International Relations degree explores both topics in equal depth and is especially suited to anyone with an interest in international public policy and international political economy.During the first two years you’ll cover macroeconomics and microeconomics, and learn to apply quantitative techniques. Final-year options apply this core knowledge to more specialised areas such as labour, industrial and health economics, technology and innovation, and business cycles.With a wide choice of politics modules, you can study the specific contexts of the UK, the EU, Africa, the US, South Asia or Southeast Asia – or take a broader view with themes such as globalisation, racism and political violence.The year abroad will allow students to increase their knowledge of another culture, country, and understand the study of politics from a different perspective. It will also allow for the possibility to learn another language.
