About the course

A four-year, 240-credit degree covering international economics, trade, marketing, finance and management, taught face to face in Valencia. Group A is taught in English and Group B in Spanish; students take 18 credits of languages, spend part of the degree at a university abroad and complete 18 credits of work placement.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • Under Spanish law (Royal Decree 534/2024) Leaving Cert students do not sit the Spanish PAU, but must meet the minimum rules for university entry in Ireland (as a guide, six subjects with at least H5 in two and O6/H7 in the other four, including English and Irish). UNEDasiss converts your Leaving Cert to a Spanish score out of 10, and places are ranked on that score; you can raise it towards 14 with UNED PCE subject tests. UV publishes nothing Irish-specific, so confirm with admissions.
  • To join the English group (A) you must pass a UV placement test; no specific maths subject or level is listed for this degree.
  • UV does not state on the programme page whether native speakers or Leaving Cert English holders are exempt from the placement test; check with the Faculty of Economics.

Costs

  • Public university price: EUR 12.79 per credit for first enrolment for EU/EEA students (EUR 25.58 per credit applies to non-EU students). A standard 60-credit year is about EUR 767. Credits repeated after failing cost more. The UNEDasiss accreditation costs about EUR 36, plus extra fees if you sit UNED PCE subject tests. The academic year of this price is not stated on the programme page, so confirm the 2027/28 figure.
The course has an English group and a Spanish group sharing 150 places, and you must pass a placement test to get into the English group. Places are ranked on your converted Leaving Cert score, so UNED PCE tests can matter.
