Course Structure
Students complete the first two years in general business. This gives them the opportunity to learn about the wider business context and to see where their area of interest lies. They then choose a specialist discipline at the end of Year 2 such as Marketing. Years 3 and 4 are then focussed on that specific discipline with a marketing related work placement undertaken during the second term of Year 3.
