BA (Hons) Business Management

Gain a comprehensive understanding of a range of core business topics, combining academic study with practical skill development. With a wide array of optional modules, you can specialise in an area of interest or keep your options open, gaining insight into a range of different disciplines. Expand your career options with a solid understanding of business and management disciplines and how they influence an organisation’s success. In your first year, you will develop a broad knowledge of all the management and business fundamentals while being introduced to topics you may want to explore more in your second and final years of study. From the second year onwards, you will have increased flexibility with your module choice, so you can tailor your direction of study towards your chosen specialism. You may choose modules in a particular area of business such as HR, marketing or entrepreneurship, or you could keep your options open - the choice is yours.
