**Overview**Our world is facing immense challenges, from climate change to political polarisation and a widening gap between the haves and the have-nots. On our BA in Global Development with Economics with a Year Abroad, you'll explore big questions like: Why are some countries richer than others? Who wins and who loses from globalisation? And which is more effective at reducing poverty-aid or trade? This innovative course blends a strong interdisciplinary foundation with a specialist economics lens. You’ll study contemporary issues from an economics perspective – including poverty, exclusion, deprivation, foreign aid, the environment, trade, and globalisation. You’ll examine the root causes of economic and social inequality and explore the policies and processes that can help reduce them. You’ll develop practical skills in economic methods and statistics, master data analysis techniques, and gain hands-on experience with specialist statistical software. This dynamic course provides a broad foundation in key development issues, organisations, and practices, combining economic insights with perspectives from across the social sciences - including anthropology, environmental sciences, geography, media, and politics. You'll explore different world regions and have the flexibility to tailor your studies to your evolving interests. In your third year, you’ll also have the exciting opportunity to study at one of our many partner universities around the world.
