Do you see yourself playing a key role in the running of a business? Are you hoping to become a project manager or operations manager for a successful organisation one day? The BSc Business Management (Operations) with a Foundation Year degree at Swansea University could help you achieve this. If you don’t attain the necessary grades to enrol on to the BSc Business Management (Operations) course, the BSc Business Management (Operations) with a Foundation Year degree is for you.

During your degree, as well as covering the core areas of business and management, you will develop the practical skills and mind-set required for a role in operations management. The course is perfect for students who have a clear interest in understanding and approving how things are made, be it products or services. You will study a range of key business topics that include marketing, accounting, finance, strategy, and human resource management alongside modules which are dedicated to operations, management consulting and e-business.
