We understand the value of expanding your study experience beyond a single subject which is why, with our BA Economics with French, we’re focused on providing multiple perspectives and a truly international experience. Your studies will follow a similar pattern to the BA Economics programme, except that you take compulsory modules in French in your first, second and fourth years. In your third year you’ll study at a university in Aix-en-Provence through the SOCRATES/ERASMUS programme while continuing to study Economics.
