This Honours Bachelor of Social Sciences program in International Economics and Development is a four-year, 120-unit degree offered by the University of Ottawa's Department of Economics in English and French. The curriculum examines how globalization affects individuals, industry, governments and entire nations, with particular attention to developing countries, building quantitative and analytical skills through courses such as Development Economics and International Trade alongside practical international learning experiences. In the fourth year, students can carry out a directed research project in the field. Co-operative education and a French immersion stream are both available, and a 12-unit microprogram in the same subject is also offered. Graduates are prepared for roles in public policy, international trade, business, banking and finance, consulting, research, international development and advocacy.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: On top of the general Social Sciences language prerequisite, English 4U (ENG4U) or Français 4U (FRA4U), Economics-based programs also require Advanced Functions 4U (MHF4U); the Mathematics and Economics joint BSocSc additionally requires Calculus and Vectors 4U (MCV4U). The published minimum admission average is 75%, calculated from the applicant's top six 4U/4M/DU grades including the required prerequisites, with mathematics graded at the highest level attempted counted toward the average. This line applies uniformly across the named Economics variants and joint-honours combinations pairing Economics with Political Science or Mathematics, since the Faculty of Social Sciences publishes one Economics discipline line rather than a separate line per option. Meeting the minimum does not guarantee admission in a competitive cycle.
