Business Management (International Management) (BSc)

Course structure

This is a three-year full-time programme, consisting 120 credits a year.  All Students, regardless of route, take a common Year 1, which does not count towards the final degree classification.  At the end of Year 1, you have the option to either stay with the BSc Business Management (International Management) degree or to move to one of the other Business Management programmes if you have developed an interest in another area.

In Years 2 and 3, compulsory modules are determined by the choice of route but you also choose optional modules from an approved list enabling you to further tailor the degree to your interests.

The modules shown are an example of the typical curriculum and will be reviewed prior to the 2022/2023 academic year. The final modules will be published by September 2022.
