Course Description

This integrated economics and management degree allows you to study both disciplines to a high level.

Your first year and half of your second year comprise mandatory units which will give you a solid grounding in both disciplines. This gives you a depth of understanding which will enable you to explore what you find most interesting later on.

Half of your second year and your final year will involve optional units. At least one third of your final year must include units in economics, and at least one third from units in management. Otherwise you have the freedom to focus on your preferred discipline, or select options in accounting or finance (subject to conditions). You also have the choice to complete a management dissertation.

Accredited by the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) for the purpose of exemption from some professional examinations through the Accredited degree accelerated route.

Accredited by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) for the purpose of exemption from some professional examinations.
