    Expand your career options with a solid understanding of business and management disciplines and how they influence an organisation’s success.

    From a first year covering the essentials such as behaviour at work, accounting, quantitative methods, marketing and ethics, we expand your core knowledge and your possible career paths in year two, with optional modules that vary from the creative to the technical.

    Whether you choose international marketing or organisational psychology, decision sciences or entrepreneurship, you’ll be taught by leaders in their fields using real-world examples – absorbing ideas invaluable to the modern workplace.

    Later, you can choose to specialise in a particular area of business, or keep your options open. You’ll also have the option to take a flexible placement year between your second and third year, and of course make the most of our strong relationships with businesses and alumni – learning from, and networking with, professionals in a range of sectors.

    The Management School is Triple Crown accredited by AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB. On completion of the BA Business Management course, you will have gained exemptions from certain exams in the CIMA Certificate in Business Accounting and the CIMA Professional Qualification.
