Economics with German (including Year Abroad)

Description

Do you want to combine the study of economics with a modern foreign language? Economics is not only about stocks and shares and financial markets, it relates to every aspect of our lives where there is a demand to produce and supply goods and services.

BA Economics with German (including Year Abroad) is similar to our BA Economics but allows you to learn German as part of your studies and spend your third year abroad. You enter the course on one of two language levels and will be tested on enrolment to make sure you study at the right level. You will complete your course either at Proficiency or Mastery level.

Whether you have already studied aspects of economics, this course gives a thorough introduction to all aspects of economics and mathematics, including micro and macroeconomics, and introduces you to quantitative research methods (this is common across all our courses).

During your second year, you build on these skills and in your final year you will specialise in areas that you find most interesting, whilst at the same time continuing to build your language skills. You are required to complete a project in your final year (applicable to all our courses) and is an excellent way to evidence the skills you have learnt to future employers or prepare for postgraduate study.

Whether you continue studying or go into work, you will graduate secure in the knowledge you have received one of the best undergraduate training available in economics, from one of the top-rated research departments in the UK.
