**Overview**
Have you ever wondered why some countries are richer than others? Why being born in one country can mean you’re likely to earn 70 times more than someone born in another? Why some have managed to grow rapidly, whilst others have been left behind? Have you thought about what poverty looks like in different contexts, or why some groups in society are worse off than others? How do inequalities arise? How effective are anti-poverty efforts?

**Overview**<br/>Have you ever wondered why some countries are richer than others? Why being born in one country can mean you’re likely to earn 70 times more than someone born in another? Why some have managed to grow rapidly, whilst others have been left behind? Have you thought about what poverty looks like in different contexts, or why some groups in society are worse off than others? How do inequalities arise? How effective are anti-poverty efforts? How should we distribute aid? What is the impact of the global economy on developing countries? What policies can improve health, education and happiness in developing countries? Essentially, how do we improve the fiscal, economic, and social conditions for the world’s poorest and create a more just world? <br/><br/>Learn to tackle these big questions – and many more – in our BA Global Development with Economics with a Placement Year. This innovative course combines a strong interdisciplinary foundation with a specialist economics lens in the study of global development. You’ll take core modules that seek to understand critical contemporary issues from an economics perspective – including poverty, exclusion, deprivation, foreign aid, the environment, trade and globalisation – focusing specifically on how economic and social inequalities arise, and exploring the policies and processes that can reduce them. You’ll develop practical skills in economic methods and statistics, learning basic data analysis techniques and exploring specialist statistical software, in order to think systematically about important macroeconomics and microeconomics questions. <br/><br/>In addition to this economics focus, you’ll gain a broad grounding in the key issues, organisations and practices of development, fusing insights from anthropology with those from across the social sciences, including economics, environmental sciences, geography, media, and politics. You can develop your understanding of particular regions in the world, and you can pursue your interests as they emerge. In your third year, you’ll have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience through a Placement Year. The result is an extremely flexible degree programme that you can tailor to suit your particular interests, that allows you to combine an interdisciplinary foundation with your niche specialism. <br/><br/>By studying with us, you’ll join our close-knit academic community, made up of experts from across multiple disciplines, all housed within the School of Global Development. As such, you’ll not only learn from our world-renowned economists, but you can also benefit from a truly vibrant academic environment. <br/><br/>At UEA, we’re amongst the best in the world for researching, teaching, and practicing development, and our students go on to work in variety of careers in development, and beyond. Come and study with us and help to create a fairer world. <br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/>Course details are subject to change.
