Course summary
If you are considering a career in business management, this BSc is an excellent place to start. You’ll graduate as a confident, independent thinker with a detailed knowledge of the relevant issues, and the skills to adapt rapidly to change. BSc Business Management will give you in-depth knowledge of organisations and the business environment, and an insight into the core areas of corporate life, including managing people, operations, logistics, marketing, finance, and the role of ethical management. You will explore how businesses can operate effectively in a multicultural environment, while learning to identify and solve business problems yourself, and communicate your ideas with impact. This course is offered as a degree with foundation year: a four-year programme which provides an additional foundation year at the beginning of the degree, that will give you academic and practical experience to successfully complete your chosen degree. The foundation year will build the confidence, essential study skills and subject knowledge you need. We accept students from all ages and backgrounds on the foundation year - including those without formal qualifications. Over the course of your studies, you will acquire key attributes employers value, such as commercial acumen, self-reflection and emotional intelligence, together with skills in research, numeracy, project management and leadership. This programme is dual accredited to a CMI qualification. Upon successful completion of the programme, Roehampton on-campus students, will be eligible for a CMI L5 qualification in Management and Leadership (subject to passing the required mapped CMI modules and CMI moderation). This course also offers all students the option of a one-year paid work placement, to boost your employability even further. If you choose this route, you will take the placement following year two of the main degree, and then return to complete your degree afterwards.
Modules
During the foundation year, you will take modules in English and Maths which will develop your core academic and study skills. The syllabus includes a year-long module relevant to your chosen degree subject, such as Business Essentials. This will provide you with a subject specific knowledge in Business which is essential for success in your degree. Throughout your degree there is a focus on supporting you to develop and track your own increasing ability to add value to organisations. This is achieved through our Business Readiness module where, working with your Personal Tutor, you will gather evidence of your knowledge, attributes and skills. This will demonstrate to prospective employers how you can play a key role in whichever organisations you work for. In your first year, you will learn to recognise your personal strengths and weaknesses through a process of self-assessment and reflection, and understand your role in a team. You will practice these skills in a variety of team problem-based activities and scenarios. You will also establish an overview of business organisations in a global context and be introduced to key areas of business such as finance, marketing and data analysis. Your second year will continue to develop your business readiness, and you will gain experience of management, from managing people across different cultures, to supply chain and project management. In your third year, you will progress to understandings corporate strategy and business ethics. You will also be able to develop a deeper understanding of key areas such as finance and banking, or global marketing. There is a focus on specific subjects through options, such as developing an understanding of branding and Human Resource management on an international scale. You could also go deeper into the theory and practice of entrepreneurship.
