About this course
The ability to understand and assess the impact of public policy on industry and society – as well as diverse issues such as digitisation and technological change, the development of market economies, social inequality, and Brexit – is key in business.
Our BA Business Economics course gives you the knowledge to understand these complex issues and make better business decisions, giving you skills that are attractive to a range of employers across both public and private sectors.
We have links with major international businesses so you can further enhance your employability through real industry experience on placement with the likes of Bosch, BMW, Siemens and Disney, or spend a year with the Government Economic Service or the Office for National Statistics.
In your final year, you’ll also have the chance to take an internship (that’s in addition to the extra option of studying abroad or spending a year on placement in industry).
This degree shares a common first year with our BSc Economics programme so you can choose to switch direction in the second year if you develop a particular area of interest.
As the birthplace of Authentic Business Learning, we take a different approach to most universities and focus on giving you the skills and experience to succeed.
You'll still learn the theory and take exams that are necessary for your qualifications, but you'll also take part in live projects with real businesses, complete assignments and deliver presentations. So your grades will be based on the tools you'll actually need when you graduate.
Each year, you’ll study modules worth 120 credits. Most modules are 20 credits but some are worth more. In these cases, you’ll study fewer modules. Some modules are compulsory, some are optional, so you can build a course that’s right for you.
