BA in Business and Management with Placement Year

In a rapidly evolving business world, innovation and flexibility are more important than ever. This degree is ideal if you have an interest in the way businesses operate and grow, if you’re naturally inquisitive and have the desire to develop your knowledge through investigation and research.

With the BA Business and Management you’ll start to develop your business, investigative and practical skills from day one. From people management to technological advances, marketing to culture and ethics, you’ll quickly build the knowledge to enter the global business sector.

The curriculum combines academic theory with knowledge of complex and modern business practice. You’ll learn from expert guest speakers and complete a selection of business-related projects such as developing a business plan for a new start-up. You will spend your third year on placement, a valuable opportunity to gain first-hand industry experience and start building a network of business contacts in preparation for graduation.

As well as the placement route you also have the option to complete the degree in three years or spend a year abroad.

The curriculum offers plenty of opportunities to tailor your studies as your interests evolve. The first year introduces the key areas of business and management. In subsequent years you will further develop your knowledge and skills in areas such as leadership, strategy, people management, marketing and human resource management.
