Course Overview

Offered by University of Oxford, the BA (Hons) History and Economics provides a comprehensive undergraduate education in social sciences. Based in Oxford, England, this Russell Group university offers a research-led approach to learning, with a 3-year full-time structure. The History and Economics course integrates these two subjects to form a coherent and intellectually stimulating programme. The combination allows insights that neither subject can realise alone. However, it is possible to specialise primarily in either history or economics while still preserving the benefits of an integrated approach. International tuition fees are £43,600 per year, home/UK fees are £10,050 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 7.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 96% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £46,000 within three years, a 100% continuation rate, and 70% of graduates in employment or further study.
