Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Business and Management (With Placement Year) (N101)

On this course, students will develop the skills needed for a managerial career in any sector, both in the UK and internationally. Students will build a broad foundation of knowledge on all aspects of business and management, ensuring they graduate as a well-rounded professional with excellent commercial awareness.

The programme covers core business concepts in the first year of study, including:

• accounting • marketing • business economics • operations and information systems management

Students can then tailor their studies to emerging areas of interest or career aspirations through a wide range of specialist modules.

A sandwich placement year, taken in year three of the programme, enables students to develop their skills and professional confidence - and boosts their employability on graduation.

There is a strong emphasis on teaching that is informed by the latest research and commercial best practice, as well as a focus on employability, sustainable development and global corporate responsibility.

This 4-year programme offers students the opportunity to take up a placement year working in business in their third year.

Placements are real, paid jobs in a wide variety of organisations in the private, public and not-for-profit sectors and offer students an invaluable opportunity to experience first-hand how business and management concepts are applied in practice, and to give students direct exposure to real issues in the workplace. It can also be done abroad.
