Course summary
This degree will help you to think critically and creatively about business and management. You will gain an understanding of how organisations and managers operate in a global environment and you will develop analytical, problem-solving and people skills that are sought by all employers. This course includes real industry case studies to help you apply theory to practice.
You will learn about management practice in the global business environment, as well as finance and marketing. Our wide range of optional units allows you to customise your degree to your interests and career ambitions. Options include areas such as strategy, business law, and human resource management.
This course will equip you for a career in any industry. For more information on the flexible study options our BSc Business and Management course offers, watch our video: youtube.com/watch?v=WaI8J7MVJD0.
In your first year, you will study several core units that will help you build the foundation for furthering your studies in whichever aspect of business or management you choose to focus on later. These core units introduce you to different areas of business and management such as marketing, management, accounting and finance as well as statistics.
During your second and final years, you will take other core and optional units to suit your interests. By tailoring your options, you can choose to graduate with a specialist pathway, helping to demonstrate your knowledge in specific areas.
