Economics and Business with East European Studies

This programme will equip you with transferable knowledge and skills in economics and business studies combined with an application of these disciplines to the east European region. You will gain an enhanced understanding of the complexities of the region and have the opportunity to become proficient in an east European language.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 0.5 or 1.0 credits, adding up to a total of 4.0 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 1.0 credit is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

You will take compulsory modules in economics and business in years one and two, with a compulsory dissertation in your final year. In each year you choose the remainder of your courses from options in economics, politics, sociology, international relations, mathematical and statistical methodology and language.

You will be strongly encouraged to learn a language of the region as part of your degree. Not only will you be able to make use of our excellent language teaching resources, but you will also be able to access the foreign language newspaper and television resources of the SSEES Library.
