International Business Management

Whether you’re running a corner shop or a multinational company, your business will rely on global supply chains and complex interactions. Our International Business Management degree will equip you with the skills, knowledge and experience to navigate these challenges.

You will learn about the rules that govern the movement of goods, services, people and capital, as well as the practicalities of trading across borders. It could range from how to enter a new market or work with a new trading partner through to understanding cultural differences.

You’ll explore everything from a real-world perspective, with live industry briefs, case studies and the chance to create your own consultancy to support a company. There will also be business simulations, where you could be making financial decisions and looking at where to sell your products.
