The Business Economics degree programme with French provides students with an understanding of economic theory, in particular the organisational and managerial characteristics of the modern business enterprise. It also aims to provide a high level of competence in French and knowledge of the economy of France.
The programme aims to inform you of the main features of the UK industrial economy and the key developments in business.
You will examine government and international business policy to identify their ramifications for the development of markets and firms. You will also be introduced to subject areas outside the economics discipline with the opportunity to follow modules in business finance, marketing and other aspects of management.
Through the study of Business Economics and French, the programme encourages a range of transferable discipline-specific and core skills that will be of value to you in future education and in your subsequent careers.

Cardiff really is surrounded by some scenic gems. It’s in the middle of everything and is so well connected with transport links that you can get pretty much everywhere and anywhere you want.

I chose Cardiff because it felt right. It was the first open day I attended and even on that first visit I just really liked the feel of the city, with it already feeling like home.

People are super friendly, and the city is affordable for students . . . There are also plenty of coffee shops and restaurants that you can hang out with your friends.
