3 SECTION 2: WHY STUDY THIS PROGRAMME? 2.1 Rationale for/distinctiveness of the programme The key distinctiveness of this programme is in its international orientation. While it is designed to provide students with a broad based training in economics and finance, it achieves this through a strong applied focus on the international and global environment in which today s business organisations (both for-profit and not-for-profit) must compete. This environment has become increasingly turbulent and subject to dramatic change following in the wake of the recent global financial crisis and the ongoing uncertainty concerning the future of the Euro. This degree will provide you not only with the skills necessary to understand such developments but also to enter careers in business and government where you can help shape how these organisations can respond to and manage such changes. The economics team has extensive research and teaching experience in international questions, especially in the areas of environmental economics, development economics and finance. It also has considerable expertise in the use of a range of techniques for the interpretation and analysis of economic data which will enable you to ground your analyses of key international developments on a firm empirical basis as you progress through the course. 2.2 Aims of the programme to provide an intellectually challenging and engaging training in the disciplines of economics, finance and international business to enhance students lifelong learning capabilities and personal development so as to enable them to work with self-direction and originality and to be able to contribute to society at large to prepare students for entering careers in a wide range of national and international organisations and businesses or for entry to further study and research at postgraduate level SECTION 3: PROGRAMME LEARNING OUTCOMES On successful completion of the programme, graduates will demonstrate the following Brookes Attributes: 3.1 ACADEMIC LITERACY 1.

SECTION 5: TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT Teaching, Learning and Assessment Academic Literacy requires students to have a firm grasp of the theories and methods that form the fundamental toolbox of economic enquiry and is the focus of Level 4 modules such as Microeconomics 1, Macroeconomics 1 and Mathematics for Economics & Finance. Key to the learning experience in these modules is the weekly in-class practice of problem-solving exercises. The Economics & Society in Context modules broadens the curriculum in a way that takes students beyond the textbook and emphasises the applied nature of economics and its role in everyday life (Active Citizenship). Development continues at Level 5 in Microeconomics 2 and Macroeconomics 2, with increasing emphasis on encouraging recognition of the limitations of different theoretical perspectives and on developing an appreciation of alternative approaches to modelling economic problems. At Level 6 Contemporary Issues in Economics and Finance enable demonstration of Academic Literacy through encouraging application of relevant theories to practical problems of the international financial system and to analysis of fundamental problems such as poverty and inequality. The skills-based module Statistics for Economics & Finance is primarily dedicated to developing Digital and Information Literacy, Critical Self-awareness and Personal Literacy and Research Literacy and focuses on skills of information sourcing, data selection and presentation. Development of Research Literacy is accomplished through both the approach to learning and through the assessments. This module has a strong focus on Problem-Based Learning (PBL) which enables students to undertake research on their own rather than as passive absorbers of content. Level 6 provides further opportunities to develop literacies related to research, IT and critical self-awareness and personal development. As part of the assessment on Contemporary Issues in Finance students produce a blog with critical assessment of choice and quality of sources used in its construction. Finally, the Synoptic for Economics requires a significant element of self-reflection on the learning process. Internationalisation of the curriculum enables the attribute of Active Citizenship to be developed progressively across successive years of the programme. An understanding of diversity begins in year Template updated May
9 one in Global Business Communications (recommended module for year one) with a focus on intercultural issues in communications. Appreciation of cross-cultural understanding is then further embedded in the international Level 5 compulsories, for example by looking at differences between the cultures of various national labour markets and financial systems. A major focus of International Labour Markets is developing awareness of issues relating to inequality and discrimination. Critical engagement with the welfare implications of these issues is then further developed in the final year compulsory Contemporary Issues in Economics. The majority of staff contributing to the programme are research active and their work is actively integrated within a number of modules, for example on Contemporary Issues in Economics and International Labour Markets. Learning is further enhanced through exposure to a diversity of teaching methods including traditional lectures, seminars and workshops. Students participate in activities such as group presentations, role-plays, analyses of numerical data, discussions of topical material (for example newspaper articles, videos and web-sites), and computer-based simulations. To encourage independent learning, face-to-face learning is supplemented by a range of activities undertaken outside class with emphasis on the use of e-learning, self-study quizzes and diagnostic assessments. In line with the Brookes Assessment Compact, the assessment process is seen as a fundamental tool of the learning process and learning outcomes are achieved through allowing students to engage with a variety of activities including the construction of case studies, group presentations, written reports, self and peer assessment as well as the through the use of media such as websites and videos. Face-to-face feedback is a feature of a number of compulsory modules The programme provides for a balanced assessment load with most modules using 50% coursework / 50% examination but there are a small number of modules assessed wholly by coursework or examination. Each module involves 150 hours of study time (300 for a double module). Study time consists of time in formal classroom activities (lectures, seminars etc.) and for most modules this consists of 12 two hour weekly blocks (24 hours per single module). Thus, self-study (preparing for seminars, undertaking research for coursework and meeting to collaborate on group work etc.) takes up the majority of the time devoted to the module (126 hours). Assessment regulations The programme conforms to the University s Academic Regulations; section B2 Undergraduate Modular Programme Regulations The Programme also embeds the principles and practices within the Brookes Assessment Compact. Assessments are carefully designed to contribute to formative developmental feedback and can incorporate peer feedback as well. All module guides include specific assessment criteria which are clearly communicated and an assessment calendar is also produced. SECTION 6: ADMISSION TO THE PROGRAMME 6.1 ENTRY REQUIREMENTS Please see the University's general entry requirements Information regarding typical offers is available via the course entry in the University s on-line prospectus.

The University Careers Service offers guidance on career planning as well as practical advice on CV writing, mock interviews and assessment centres, tutorials and careers counselling. Its online vacancies database Talent Bank details internship and graduate job opportunities plus volunteering and project work The knowledge and skills gained by Economics, Finance & International Business graduates will equip them for a wide range of careers, notably working as economists in the public and private sector, working for financial institutions and in financial markets and using their more specialised knowledge in a more general business setting. The programme is explicitly focused around developing the skills to work in international organisations. Economics, Finance & International Business graduates will also be well suited for work in the `third sector of not-for-profit and voluntary organisations and in NGOs. The degree is further designed to provide a good basis for postgraduate study in areas such as economics, finance or business and management. Visiting speakers from a range of organisations contribute to the programme. Links with organisations such as the Government Economic Service are actively maintained to ensure students are aware of opportunities for summer internships. The programme team has many links to employers such as Oxford Economic Forecasting, HM Treasury, IBM and Disney through the Work Placement Scheme. Students are strongly encouraged to undertake a third-year placement and to register with the Placements office for advice on obtaining internships. Template updated May
