Our CMI accredited BA (Hons) Business Management and Computing degree will instil fundamental business skills alongside the latest trends in business computing and IT, helping you gain valuable workplace skills across both disciplines.

This course has been designed in close consultation with some of today's biggest players, such as Google, Coca Cola, and Oracle, ensuring the skills you gain are both in-demand and highly relevant to today's workplace. You'll acquire an in-depth understanding of how to successfully run a business, alongside how computing contributes towards this. Not only that, but you'll be taught all of this by industry experts who will provide you with real insight into the sector.

Through our business simulation software, SimVenture, you'll have the opportunity to apply your learning to practise in a safe environment, allowing you to experience first-hand how to run a business and overcome the challenges you might face along the way. You'll also have access to the Arden Enterprise Incubator, which provides a host of resources aimed at nurturing your business acumen, such as training, coaching, and workshops led by industry experts. Through this, you'll learn the ins and outs of starting, running, and developing a successful business.
