Program Overview

Prepare for entry to Year 1 of an undergraduate degree at the triple-accredited Lancaster University Management School, ranked world top 100 for Business and Management Studies (QS World University Rankings by Subject 2025).

International Foundation – helping you to develop specialist knowledge, language and study skills, this intensive one-year study abroad pathway program will bridge the gap between high school and undergraduate study.

Leading to:- Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Economics, Politics and International Relations

BA Economics, Politics and International Relations provides you with the analytical skills and intellectual toolbox to help answer these pressing economics questions and many more. You will learn how to interpret data, understand (and quantify) the decisions made by individuals, organisations, and governments and evaluate public policy both nationally and globally.

The course begins by introducing the foundational principles of economic theory, international relations and politics. This degree connects the analytical skills of economics with insights and ways of thinking from politics and international relations. This is an incredibly flexible course allowing you to weight your studies to any and all of the three main subject areas.

Year one will cover the fundamentals of economic theory and practice, politics in the modern world, and the fundamentals of international relations.

Year two allows you to choose modules from across economics, politics and international relations.

You will be supported in securing a placement for your third year, with previous placement students joining companies in the public and private sectors. Most placements are in the UK, but there are some options overseas.

In your final year, you have more flexibility in your module options, so as your degree progresses and you discover more about both the subjects and about yourself, you have the opportunity to flex this course in ways that speak to your changing interests and strengths. This might lead you to choose modules in:

  • Development economics
  • Economic inequality
  • Political ideas
  • International relations, security and sustainability
