75% Economics provides students with a strong grounding in the theoretical foundations of economics and their relevance for understanding economic behaviour and policy. Students develop knowledge of key economic concepts and frameworks, alongside familiarity with analytical and quantitative tools used to examine real-world economic issues. Through the study of microeconomic and macroeconomic perspectives, students explore how economists analyse markets, institutions, and economic outcomes. The programme also introduces students to important theoretical developments in the discipline, enabling them to appreciate advances in economic thought and their application to contemporary economic challenges in both national and global contexts. Our Minor in Spanish enables you to attain proficiency by graduation through structured and immersive language training. You will develop advanced skills in writing, reading, speaking and listening in one of the world’s most important languages, widely spoken in Spain, across North, Central and South America, the Caribbean and extending into the United States. Spanish opens access to dynamic global regions and to rich literary, cinematic and intellectual traditions, alongside major social, cultural and historical debates. An optional Year Abroad in Spain, Latin America, or both, further strengthens fluency and intercultural competence, enhancing your career prospects worldwide. Combined Degrees\ Most Combined Degrees allow you to adapt the weighting of each by 25% after the first year, helping you to keep your options open. Please note, however, students studying either a Business or Economics pathway in combination with another subject cannot increase from 25% to 50% or from 50% to 75% and it is not possible to transfer from a 50% to 75% Law.
