Course summary

Economics examines some of the profound issues in our times: economic growth and sustainable development, unemployment, poverty, financial and monetary crises, trade and aid. As a Kent Economics student, you analyse and discuss these crucial areas and are challenged to contribute to possible solutions.In your first year, you learn how economists think and become familiar with the tools they use for analysing real economic problems. You can also study modules in professional economics, as well as strategy and games. In your second and final years, you study macroeconomics, microeconomics and quantitative economics. Optional modules cover areas such as international finance, industrial and monetary economics, and the economics of money and banking. Our wide range of modules means you can tailor your degree to support your particular career ambitions; for example, you can choose modules that prepare you for life as a professional economist. On this programme, you spend a year between your second and final year studying at a partner university in France, Germany, Greece, Japan or Spain. With the exception of Greece, you study the language of your destination country as an integral part of your programme. If you choose to spend your year abroad in either France or Germany, your studies will be in the language of that country. However, if you choose Greece, Japan or Spain, you will be taught in English.
