Business Management BA Welcome Pack
Welcome to BA Business Management 2024.
The BA (Hons) Business Management programme is designed to support your learning, catering to a wide range of business interests. Year 1 provides 6 modules that are compulsory for all learners. In years 2 and 3, you can select one of 6 specialisms. Each year 1 module is designed for personal and professional development, and to support refining and focusing on your individual career aspirations. Combined this gives you a broad understanding of the subject with the ability to refine your studies based on personal interest.
The programme has a strong leadership team, and you will have a personal academic tutor to support you. We expect that you will attend modules well, and we actively seek to provide opportunities within the curriculum for industry engagement and guest speakers to enrich your experience. This commitment to your learning from us, and you, leads to some wonderful success stories.
This year’s graduates have secured jobs with large brands such as Tesla and Volkswagen, organisations such as the crown court and public sector, and roles including project management, new talent executive and group supervisor.
We are proud of the achievements of our students, and we actively seek to provide you with everything you need to secure that top graduate role.
We look forward to seeing you at our campus very soon
