Course summary

This is a four-year programme that includes a year of foundational study and leads directly into the degree course. Our foundation year offers the chance to strengthen your skills, knowledge and confidence, before you advance to stage one of your honours degree. The BA (Hons) Business and Management (International Trade) aims to prepare students with the skills and knowledge to operate as successful managers, within the ever changing world of modern Business and Management. The department endeavours to provide students with a learning experience that is stimulated by and reflective of these changes. We consciously seek to integrate theory and practice and this includes a variety of work placement opportunities. We offer this programme with two study options. You can choose four years full-time or five years full-time which would include a one-year professional placement before your final year that will give you hands-on experience in a real-life working environment. This sandwich year would give you practical skills that many employers seek, giving you a competitive edge upon graduation.
