Bachelor of Science in Modern Languages and Economics

Program Overview

 Study a modern language, and apply key economic analysis skills to international issues, with our BA Modern Languages and Economics degree.

This highly flexible degree enables you to study a modern language – choosing from our core languages of French, German, Italian and Spanish – alongside your studies in economics.

Taught by experts from the Department of Languages and Cultures and the Department of Economics, you’ll acquire transferable skills with an international focus. Throughout, you’ll be encouraged to follow your interests as they develop and tailor your learning to your career goals.

In your third year, you will go abroad to enhance your language learning and undertake a placement at the same time.

  • For more information, please visit the Department of Languages and Cultures website.

Learn a language
