Overview

Marketing and Economics is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Economics is assessed through coursework and group work more than examinations, and most departments run a consultancy or company project in the final stage.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
