China plays an important role on the global stage and is one of the world’s largest economies. This degree combines core and optional modules allowing you to become proficient in a major world language while gaining a broader understanding of the history and culture of China and East Asia as a whole.

International Development gives you an insight into the challenges of global development, how people perceive their causes and the ways in which different actors respond to them. Core modules introduce you to key issues such as the impact of colonialism and how different agencies contribute to development.
