Description
This module consists of a package of courses which students take while at their year abroad university. The courses are selected to match with the students chosen discipline (economics or money, banking and finance). The courses will reflect what is taught at the year abroad university and can include additional language support if available.
Learning Outcomes
Students will build upon their knowledge of core economics and money, banking and finance (as appropriate) and will be able to take specialist courses in these areas in their chosen language to expand their understanding of theoretical developments and practical applications of the theory. The primary purpose of the year abroad is to improve the language skills towards the level of a native speaker.
Assessment
Assessment Methods & Exceptions
Students are required to take all assessments associated with the modules which they study and, in addition, they will submit a year abroad essay (4000 words) written in their language of study.
