Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Business Management and Creative Writing (B467)

The world of Business Management is fast-moving and dynamic: Business organizations are facing unprecedented change and complex challenges both within the UK and globally. This demands that students who enter the business sector understand the dynamics of the business environment and how organizations operate in increasingly uncertain situations. The Business Management degree at Liverpool Hope University examines small to medium-sized enterprises to global multi-national companies – public, private, not-for-profit with a focus on business principles, organizational dynamics and management processes.

This in-depth degree gives students the opportunity to understand how businesses operate and the ethical and social impact they have on communities. An experienced, student-focused team will develop their understanding of this business context and develop the critical business skills and transferable skills that future employers will demand.

Creative Writing at Liverpool Hope University will give students the chance to experience the joys of crafting the written word. The degree focuses on developing them as a writer of poetry and prose (fiction and creative non-fiction), across the broad field of literature (poems, short stories, novels, reflective and critical essays). Professional writing - reviews, blogs and articles for different kinds of media - is also studied. The university's focus on creativity and employability means students will be able to produce engaging, innovative and marketable texts.

By studying Creative Writing, students will be empowered with an enhanced command of their craft, increased confidence in expressing their thoughts and emotions, an understanding of the values that inform their writing practice, and the technical skillset to deliver their work to various audiences. Students' writing will be enhanced by studying under leading published writers and academics, and they will develop a range of workplace skills to prepare for fulfilling careers.
