    Good question I went through the 11/12 course catalogue and I think I'll be taking Econ 1A -20 credits (core module), Business and Management 1A - 20 credits and Environment of International Business -15 credits. That's 55 credits, so I presume I need to do at least 65 credits the second semester. You?

    hey, sorry what an awfully late reply. I've browsed the catalogue a bit but haven't got any concrete choices as of yet as i'm uncertain about the number of credits etc ( in all honesty the stress of sorting it out is not worth it during my relaxing summer ) but I can say i'm very interested in courses which include environmental economics, sustainable development, political anthropology, macroeconomics and natural resources. I'm interested in so many things that I could find myself doing any of the available courses!

    I've applied for business economics but am confused about the whole course choices and structure.

    Can someone correct me if am wrong

    • From what i understand ive applied for business economics
    • I do all the compulsary business economics modules with a choice of alternative subjects (where do i find them?)
    • After 1st year continue business economics modules and one of the alternative subjects at advanced level, and pick another alternative subject.
    • After second year decide if you want to do singles or joint honours.


    Does that mean if i do business economics in first year and pick business management modules, then i graduate with a business economics and business management joint honours?

    Or do i have to apply for joint honours from UCAS?

    Is this correct
