Business Management with a Foundation Year BSc (Hons)

BSc Business Management is designed for curious, forward-thinking minds, who are ready to gain a deeper understanding of how organisations work, ideas grow and how change happens on a local and global scale. You will explore the values that define modern business – sustainability, inclusivity, ethics, and innovation, and discover how you can make a difference.

Our programme blends theory and hands-on learning, ensuring you build a solid foundation in key business areas, such as finance, economics, marketing, analytics, and enterprise. Your studies will be enriched through regular connection with businesses, entrepreneurs, and innovators, as you benefit from our strong partnerships with local and international organisations.

You will be taught from a research-led and industry informed curriculum that adopts a global-lens approach, linking theory directly to industry trends and real-world issues. You will be empowered to thrive in diverse professional contexts, making meaningful contributions to the running of businesses and responding effectively to global economic, political and environmental challenges.

In a world where change is constant, where technology evolves quickly, markets shift overnight, and global challenges reshape the way organisations operate, with BSc Business Management you will be ready to shape success in an ever-changing world.

The optional Foundation Year for this programme can give you an exciting introduction to higher education, setting you up with the skills, confidence, and knowledge that you’ll need to be successful in your undergraduate degree. It’s ideal if you need a little more support after further education, or are returning to education after a gap. Following successful completion of the Foundation Year, you will progress onto Year 1 of your BSc.
