What is Global Development with Economics?

Our world is racked by climate change, explosive technological development, political polarisation and the gulf between haves and have-nots. We need people who can think clearly, weigh up evidence, and evaluate options for effective action in response to these challenges.

On this course you'll gain the conceptual and data-handling skills required in an uncertain and fast-changing landscape. You'll combine economic insights with other social science perspectives including anthropology, environmental sciences, geography, media, and politics.

You'll explore different world regions in depth and tailor your studies to your evolving interests. You’ll also have the opportunity to join a field trip to East Africa or complete a 7-10-week work placement in countries around the world.
