Business Law and Management

Study level:
Undergraduate
Awarded by:
Cardiff Metropolitan University (Prifysgol Metropolitan Caerdydd)

Course summary

The BA (Hons) Business Law and Management aims to enable you to develop a customisable skill-set while still fulfilling the specific requirements of a specialist legal career. Our mantra is 'Get Competent, Get Qualified, Get Hired.'

With this Business Law and Management degree, we hope to broaden your horizons beyond the traditional dichotomy of solicitors and barristers to embrace the other legal professionals, such as, for example, Paralegal, Legal Secretary, Conveyancing Technician, Licensed Conveyancer, and Probate Practitioner. Further, the multiperspectival approach taken means that those who may wish to go into the fields of business or management themselves will find plenty to whet their appetites.

We aim to create an open, cheerful and intellectually stimulating environment in which to investigate the interrelation of law and business, particularly through the inclusion of highly original modules. In 'In-house Law', for example, you will get the opportunity to examine the role of the "General Counsel", the individual who is simultaneously a part of the business and an officer of the court; such a module is unique in the UK.

We offer this programme with two study options. You can choose three years full-time or four years full-time which would include a one-year professional placement between years two and three that will give you hands-on experience in a real-life working environment. This sandwich year would give you practical skills that many employers seek, giving you a competitive edge upon graduation.
