Geography and Economics

UCL (University College London)

This challenging combined-studies programme, taught by two of the best UK departments in their respective disciplines, is designed to equip students with a thorough grounding in the theoretical principles and techniques of application in both Geography and Economics. The degree gives equal weight to both disciplines, although the balance can be modified in the second year and final year. In each year you will receive regular programme-related classes in geography and economics. The first year is highly structured but the number of compulsory modules declines in the second year and there is lots of free choice in the final year. Students must ensure that they undertake a minimum of 90 Geography and 90 Economics credits across Years Two and Three.As this is a combined-studies degree and students are expected to reach a certain level of competence in both Geography and Economics, it is not normally possible to take any module outside these two departments - though a case can be made for one third year module.
