Throughout the programme, students will gain valuable management skills and a strategic business overview that will help them understand the challenges and opportunities of working in a dynamic, international environment. The course covers key areas such as business management, business development, and entrepreneurship, allowing students to develop both practical business knowledge and an analytical understanding of how global businesses function.
Modules are assessed by coursework. This may take various forms, work-based projects, small research projects, presentations, case study analysis and the final research project/dissertation. Students who are not currently in employment may be able to base their projects on case studies.
