About this course

Think differently about business, experience work first-hand, and learn to inspire change within organisations and society. This Business Management degree with placement draws from economics, history and the social sciences. It offers an interdisciplinary approach you won’t find on similar courses elsewhere. You'll complete a year's paid work placement to give you practical experience.

Your A level results will determine which core or compulsory modules you'll need to take.

This comprehensive and flexible Business Management degree will prepare you for a career in a wide range of organisations, including:

  • start-ups
  • large corporations
  • social enterprises
  • the not-for-profit sector

This degree will suit you if you want to drive change and initiatives, and make business and society work better.

You'll spend your third year on an approved, paid industry placement in a business organisation. This will give you vital experience to boost your future career.

You'll receive dedicated support from our Placements Office throughout this course. This is our means of driving collaboration between students and businesses and ensuring you're supported as you apply your learning to real-world scenarios.

Our research-focused academics are leaders in their field and keep the course current. You'll benefit from our Business School’s close links with industry.
