From fundamentals to specialisation

What do you want to study?

The course syllabus traces a path from the more general areas in the first year to more specific and technical issues in the advanced courses. You will actively participate in seminars on current topics throughout your four years of study.

All subjects are structured into the following modules:

Philosophy, Politics and Economics

You will study the fundamentals of the philosophical discipline, both in its historical and systematic aspects, through the tools for the analysis and interpretation of social problems.

Economy, Development and Society

You will work with the tools and methods of micro and macroeconomic analysis in order to interpret the economic sphere and its influence on the cultural and socio-political context.

Politics, Critique and Society

You will gain an understanding of the basic principles that explain current socio-political structures and you will learn about the main theories of social justice. From the sociological foundations of democratic societies to the political principles of states, all without losing the historical perspective and its international dimension.

Interdisciplinary Seminars

You will take part in seminars on current socio-political, economic and philosophical issues in which you will gain insight into the main topics in these fields and be able to actively participate in them.

International Trade Skills

What does the Deusto degree programme offer you?

International trade

The role of philosophy, politics and economics is becoming increasingly intertwined in more complex scenarios of the globalised world.

English skills

If you want to acquire this international profile, you will need to enhance your language skills. Therefore, you will study all subjects in English.

In order to gain access to this qualification it is necessary to have a B2 level in English.

7 additional subjects

This Deusto degree programme is worth 36 ECTS credits and is spread over the 4 years except for the international mobility semester. It consists of 7 subjects such as International Business Environment: Geoeconomics and Power, Business Statistics and Marketing Research and Management of International Strategy,among others.

Management skills

Acquiring useful management skills is also one of the objectives of the International Trade Skills course, as well as the acquisition of skills for the analysis of data and information that are so necessary in today's contexts.
