Daunted about one of the subjects encompassed by MORSE? Then don't worry! The best thing about the degree is the ability to pick the modules you're most interested in after first year.

I hadn't done any Economics beforehand and I found the Mathematics modules tough, however the excellent teaching and support system helped me through. The work is sometimes challenging but the future prospects and social side of University life make it worth it. I have had a great time here and I'm very glad I took the chance applying to an unfamiliar degree!
