Course programme

The degree in Economics with German is designed to combine the main elements of an Economics degree with German. The first year provides the core modules which are the foundations for the rest of the degree, together with one module in German. In the second year, equal attention is given to the study of economics and the enhancement of language skills. The language modules taken during the second year provide the ideal preparation for the third year, which is spent abroad.

While attending University in Germany, students will be taught and examined in German.

The degree of Economics with German prepares students for a career in, or further study of, Economics, combined with the ability to work in German.

This is due to the fact that some modules have limited numbers of places available, which are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, while others have minimum student numbers required before they will run, to ensure that an appropriate quality of education can be delivered; some modules require students to have already taken particular subjects, and others are core or required on the programme you are taking. Modules may also be limited due to timetable clashes, and although the University works to minimise disruption to choice, we advise you to seek advice from the relevant School on the module choices available.
