The International Economics & Finance degree seeks to provide an appropriate mixture of economics and finance modules to provide students with a combination of economics and finance analytical skills as well as a strong understanding of UK and international financial markets. The unique strength of our course is the clear emphasis on application and critical understanding. Course Length: Three years full-time. Four years full-time if undertaking foundation year. Also available part-time and can take up to six years. The course aims to create highly skilled individuals that are able to undertake analytical tasks rather than just knowing about finance and economics.​

The course provides a combination of the analytical skills possessed by economists that are demanded in the private and public sector as well as comprehensive specialist knowledge of financial markets. This will provide graduates of the course with a wide variety of career opt​ions, but will be particularly useful to those wishing to work as analysts within the financial services industry. Work Placements: The provision of work-placements as an assessed part of your academic programme of learning is so important that we provide you with the opportunity to undertake placement as part of your second year studies. We have strong links with the business community and the work-placement programme is designed to enhance your future employability prospects.​
