More than ever economics is now a global discipline. As international markets continue to converge and barriers continue to fall, an understanding of the field in its global context is becoming vital to the true comprehension of economic forces. Earning your degree abroad in economics will grant you an invaluable global perspective on the subject, elevating your academic intake while also serving as an incredible life adventure. Where in the world where you earn your economics degree abroad?
It being one of the most popularly pursued academic degrees out there, you can expect to find a degree abroad in Economics available in most cities and countries around the world. So while you may take your pick according to which seems like the most exciting and fruitful opportunity, here are some extra considerations to take into account while deciding on your destination.
First and most obvious is the language barrier. While you can earn a degree abroad in economics pretty much anywhere, you must also reconcile with the fact that universities in most countries tend to use their native tongue as the medium of education. If you are in the process of acquiring a language or want to learn one, earning your economics degree abroad in a non-English speaking country can be a challenge which pays off big time.
Next, the scope of your economics education will also likely be affected by level of development of your host country. For instance if you are earning your economics degree abroad in Germany, your education might be a tad more speculative than in a country such as Thailand which is still in the process of industrialization. The point being: different countries have different national economic priorities, which can bleed into the content of your education.
Economics is a popular field of study abroad both at the undergraduate and graduate level. Undergraduate programs tend to be more generalized, meaning that you can enroll in a variety of courses ranging from microeconomics to macroeconomics to econometrics during the pursued of your degree abroad in economics. Graduate programs are more specialized and typically require a significant amount of research as well.
While most students choose to pursue an economics degree abroad at a full university, the option also exists to enroll at a smaller satellite school or international program, the advantage being that these institutions can offer an English speaking program in non-English speaking countries. As education globalizes along with most other sectors, many domestic universities offer the option to go abroad for your economics degree.
The cost of earning your degree abroad in economics will also fluctuate largely depending on where you study. While countries like England, Australia, and the United States offer some of the most prestigious economics programs in the world, they also come with the price tag to match. International students are also often charged additional fees in tuition, which can be something to watch out for while researching different economics degree programs abroad.
International Perspective. Understanding economic forces can be difficult, but it is undeniable that these forces are becoming increasingly global by nature. Even when studying microeconomics, approaching the subject through a global lens can deepen your appreciation of the topic.
Networking. Earning your degree abroad in another country is the perfect opportunity to make friends (both personal and professional) that come from all over the world. Wondering what you’ll do after graduation? The opportunity might just present itself while earning your degree abroad in economics!
Cultural IQ. Cross cultural interaction is not always an intuitive skill, requiring a good deal of patience and a great desire to learn while living abroad in another country. Challenging yourself in this way will pay off big time as you learn how to negotiate between similarities and differences.

Program: Bachelor's & Master's Degrees in China | Apply with GAC
I wasn't sure about leaving Finland for a full degree in China, but GAC made the application process smooth. They helped me choose the right university, prepared my documents, and guided me through the visa process. Now I'm studying International Business at a top university in Beijing. Tuition is affordable, the campus is modern, and my classmates are from all over the world. The support didn't stop after enrollment – GAC checked in to make sure I settled in well. If you're considering a degree in China, go through GAC. They make it easy.

UNYP is very welcoming and supportive of students; it is not only a safe environment but also a great area to share your ideas and converse on intelectual matters. The homework is vast but informative and all organised to act as a consistent study system for future exams.
Program: Master's Degree in Finance
Studying the Master’s Degree in Finance at Masaryk University has been one of the most enriching experiences of my life. The program provided a strong balance between theoretical frameworks and practical applications, helping me deeply understand core topics such as corporate finance, financial analysis, accounting, and international economics. The professors are knowledgeable, supportive, and always willing to engage in discussions that challenge your thinking. I particularly appreciated the diverse classroom environment, where students from various backgrounds brought different perspectives to financial topics. Beyond academics, living in Brno was a unique experience. The city is student-friendly, affordable, and culturally vibrant. I also had the opportunity to work part-time, which allowed me to gain real-world experience and apply what I learned in class. Overall, this program not only helped me grow academically and professionally but also personally. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to broaden their financial knowledge in a global context. Thank you, Masaryk University and Econ MUNI.
Thank you for your kind words and good luck with everything!

Program: Bachelor's in Business Administration and Management
I would describe moving to study in Italy, Venice as one of the best decisions of my life.

Program: Master's Degree in Finance
Studying for my Master in Finance at the Faculty of Economics and Administration, Masaryk University, has been one of the most enriching experiences of my life. From the moment I arrived in the Czech Republic, I was welcomed into a vibrant, safe, and diverse student community that has made my journey unforgettable. The university’s academic environment is exceptional. The high-quality lessons and well-structured curriculum have challenged me to expand my knowledge and skills in finance, preparing me for a successful future in my field. The professors are not only highly knowledgeable but also approachable, always encouraging us to think critically and innovate. Beyond academics, I am thoroughly enjoying student life here. Brno, with its lively culture, affordable living costs, and convenient location, offers an ideal environment for both studying and exploring. The city is incredibly safe, which has given me peace of mind and the freedom to fully immerse myself in the experience. Studying at Masaryk University has also provided me with the opportunity to connect with students from all over the world, allowing me to build lifelong friendships and broaden my cultural horizons. This experience has truly been life-changing, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to pursue a world-class education in a supportive and dynamic setting.



I divide my life into two parts, one is before I came here, the Czech Republic, and after. Firstly, I changed as a person significantly. Back at home, I thought our country is the center of the world, everyone knows about us and so on. Coming here, I realised that we are not that actually, there is a lot to do in tourism. Okay speaking of my social life, here you will make friends from all around the world, from every corner of this wonderful world. This means immersing yourself to different cultures, religions, perspectives, preferences, customs or values. Imagine how your horizon changes after all this, it is amazing to feel how your stereotypes are broken every single day about so many things. What else, coming here I developed a new hobby, travelling! Believe this is the best hobby ever to develop! Especially Czech Republic, located at Central Europe, has a relatively easy access to some wonderful jewels of Europe, such as Vienna, Warsaw, Berlin or Budapest. Academically speaking, Masaryk University has a high quality education with an affordable price. Degree programs are lot. Studying them is really an enjoyable experience, professors are always willing to help you, very professional. Information System works perfectly well, where you get access to important daily emails, information all about your studies, grades, performance, exams and everything. Well what else, it’s not only studying here in one place, there are a bunch of opportunities to go abroad for study and internships, such as Erasmus+ or outside Europe programs. About city of Brno, it’s a very cozy city with a lot of students, most of whom know speak English perfectly. People are warm and willing to help everywhere. Oh not to mention transportation system, never seen such a perfectly organised public transportation system in my life. You have an easy access to any corner of the city anytime with reasonable monthly price. On a personal level, studying abroad gives you the chance to challenge yourself, grow as an individual. You live here away from your loved ones, childhood friends, different culture, food, activities, I mean different environment. You don’t need to challenge yourself artificially, because every single day here comes with another adventure, problems to deal with, interesting dilemmas to choose one from. There is a lot to mention, but these are the ones I liked a lot here. I’m sure I will be missing all these moments as good old days.
Program: Bachelor's in Business Administration and Management
I've finished my Bachelor's degree at Ca' Foscari. It was alright. I would say that it is quite mediocre university, there are definetely worse and better options to explore. I've enjoyed extra-curricular activities. It is not very academically challenging uni, it is quite chill.
Program: Bachelor's in Digital Management
I always thought about studying abroad, in order to be independent and have an amazing experience and it was like that! I enjoyed the lessons and professors were so willing to help! I later continued my master studies here. Cannot wait for the next graduation?

I had a fun rime here! I would totally do it again! Best thing i have ever done , it allows you to experience rome 360 degrees while also traveling. I would do it every year of my undergraduate and nothing else.
I loved it, I learned how to be independent, a new language, made new friends and basically just got to know myself at a deeper level. I found myself through the program and learned so much. My professors were great and I would 100% recommend.
I’ve met some cool people and I’ve had some lovely experiences. Would recommend to anyone and everyone. Would 100% do it again. My favorite class was definitely introduction to video production. So. Much. Fun.
Had a great experience now on my last semester of university here in Rome and hoping to graduate in spring 2025 made great new friends and really learned a lot from all the different courses and great professor
John Cabot University offers a unique academic experience in the heart of Rome, combining American-style education with an international environment. Professors are highly approachable, and the small class sizes foster personalized learning. The campus is modern and well-equipped, while its location provides cultural immersion and networking opportunities in a global city. The diverse student body creates a rich exchange of ideas, but administrative processes can sometimes feel slow. Overall, it’s a great choice for those seeking a global perspective in their education while living in one of the world’s most historic cities.
Studying abroad in Rome has been life-changing. Exploring ancient ruins, strolling through vibrant piazzas, savoring authentic cuisine, and immersing in Italian culture have made every moment unforgettable.

Studying abroad is one of the best decisions you can make. You make new friends learn new stuff and culture. Studying in the new environment is better than beong surrounded by close minded people in you own country

The faculty, consisting of world-renowned scholars, provides students with cutting-edge knowledge and invaluable mentorship. The university's curriculum is both rigorous and adaptable, allowing students to customize their studies to fit their interests and career aspirations.
