The BA International Development with Economics degree examines development from an economics perspective, giving the student exposure to both interdisciplinary and disciplinary teachingThe programme enables students to combine economics with one of two other different disciplinary pathways, combined with modules that draw out the interdisciplinary nature of development. The programme aims to produce graduates who are particularly well equipped to enter employment and contribute effectively to development policy and practice, particularly in various domains where economics is used.
Graduates develop a rounded understanding of development issues and acquire a range of specialist skills. They also obtain a strong portfolio of transferable key skills that allow them to secure employment in a large number of different areas.
Teaching, Assessment and Feedback
Our degree programmes maximise the range of modules available to students with flexibility being a key element of the modular undergraduate teaching structure. With the subject of International Development tending to be relatively new to the majority of our students, the first semester is designed to provide general background information through the module Introduction to Development Studies which follows historical and contemporary themes linked to global change: environmental, political, social and economic. Please click to access the three-year course outline for the BA International Development with Economics degree.
Designed to inspire as well as to educate, we aim to enhance and inform your interest in development studies by providing skills, knowledge, understanding and practical experience. Teaching methods incorporate lectures, seminars, and e-learning sessions and student participation is actively encouraged through the use of discussion, debate, video, role-playing and problem-solving techniques. Assessment takes place throughout the period of study, with the majority of modules being assessed by a combination of course/project work, group assignments, seminar presentations and examination.
Your independent research skills will be developed throughout your degree, culminating in a final year project (Dissertation). All students are assigned an academic adviser to oversee their progress and to guide them through their wide range of module choices.
Career Opportunities
Many opportunities now exist in the broad field of international development. Large numbers of governments and organisations are creating positions, budgets and policies designed to address many pressing issues (for example: effecting climate change policy; mitigating infectious diseases; delivering child education; building appropriate infrastructure; achieving sustainable agriculture and food security; managing conflict over resources). These require remarkable individuals with remarkable skills.A graduate of International Development is a rare but valued individual due to the many skills acquired through the degree that enable students to analyse, understand and explain diverse points of view; appreciate the complex dimensions of development problems; respect differences of opinion; and apply logic and objectivity in different situations. Many of our graduates are working with large Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), including Oxfam, Action Aid, Save the Children Fund, World Wildlife Fund, Water Aid, Global Vision and Concern. Others decide to work for local or national government in the UK or overseas in a range of roles concerned with social and community care, economic development or urban regeneration, human rights and advocacy, environmental conservation, forestry and water resources. Our degrees can also be used as a qualification to enter journalism, management or teaching and a recent careers analysis of our International Development Undergraduates reflects this diversity, with alumni taking up a variety of posts. For example:
- Desk officer for DFID in the UK or overseas;
- Adviser in a think tank in London on social and economic issues;
- Community support officer in Wales, Kyrgyzstan or Nepal;
- Progress to study for a PhD;
- Researcher for senior academic or politician;
- Lecturer or school teacher;
- Scientist for an NGO such as WWF;
- Policy team for Education in an NGO such as Oxfam;
- Internship or overseas opportunities with ODI;
- Administrative officer for a development consultancy company leading to work overseas and career progression.

Economics and Society
In this module we consider the following questions: What is people's motivation and behaviour when they make choices? What are the behavioural and cognitive biases, and non-economic considerations that influence people when they make important economic decisions? Do these biases justify government's intervention (nudges)? When is rational to follow the crowd? When can humans co-operate successfully? What do we mean by fairness? How should we measure happiness? What are the economic factors that determine people's happiness? What insights can recent research from the field of `behavioural economics' give?

Quantitative Evidence in Development
Throughout the study of international development, it is important to
weigh our theoretical ideas and policy recommendations against the
available evidence. This unit deals with the use of quantitative
evidence. The aim is to enable students i) to understand quantitative
analysis encountered in other units, ii) to become critical readers of
Published quantitative data analysis and iii) to gather, analyse and
Interpret quantitative evidence themselves in support of their own study
of development questions. The unit deals with sampling approaches, a
review of descriptive statistics and a number of inferential methods.
Techniques taught include simple tests for group differences such as the
t-test, analysis of variance and linear regression.

Education and International Development
This module provides students with an understanding of key theories and current debates linking education to development and relating these to international and national education strategies, policies and educational practices. The module will have an introductory session followed by four blocks. The first block introduces students to three key theories and how they are played out in the context of education - human capital, rights and capabilities/social justice. This is followed by three lectures examining how these are articulated in and through different forms of education - formal/schooling, non-formal/adult education and informal/learning in family or community environments and through labour. The third block will explore issues of difference and inclusion in relation to current and interrelated educational priorities such as economic poverty and child labour; gender inequalities and gender violence; and minoritised groups (on the basis of ethnicity, class, language etc.). The fourth block investigates theories of learning and their provenance and both classroom practices and pedagogies and elarning in 'informal' out of school contexts.

Dissertation
The dissertation provides an opportunity to undertake a research project on
a topic within development studies in consultation with a supervisor. It
is intended to complement the more conventional methods of coursework and examination assessment, allowing students to investigate and consider themes and issues of importance to them in more depth. The dissertation is not an extended essay; rather it is a (social) scientific piece of research that sets out a clear question and methods, and develops a coherent argument based on a review of existing and/or interpretation of fresh evidence, and application to theory. A dissertation is RESTRICTED TO DEV AND EGID STUDENTS ONLY.

It extends the analysis of trade and international finance in Economics for Development 3, looks at the role of transnational corporations in the world economy and the international transfer of technology, and examines the international mobility of labour. It asks what are the implications of these developments for the nation state and how can the global economy be regulated?

Contemporary Issues in Resource Development & Conservation
RDC aims to use recent research and practical experience in the multi- and inter-disciplinary analysis of critical challenges in resource development and conservation in the developing world. Specifically, themes such as the relation between science and policy, and the implications of increased participation and local control are examined through discussions of theory and the use of case studies, in order to develop an understanding of their natural and social science, and policy dimensions. Each year these themes will be explored within two selected contexts such as - African pastoralism, water resources and irrigated agriculture, forestry, biodiversity, fisheries and aquatic resources, environment and conservation, etc.
