Management BSc

at University of Warwick

Core modules

Our BSc Management course is extremely flexible. You can choose modules in your second and final year to study one of our course pathways in Digital Innovation, Entrepreneurship, Finance or Marketing which will be reflected on your transcript upon graduation, adding even more value to your degree when applying for work in a particular sector. If you choose to study the BSc Management with Placement Year course you will complete your work placement within your third year.

In Terms One and Two you will study seven core modules introducing you to a range of business focused topics. Examinations for Term One modules will take place in January before Term Two classes begin. You will then choose between: Business Analytics, Digital Ventures, Management of Global Risks, or a language for your eighth module studied in Term Two. If you decide to study a course pathway the core and elective modules that you study during your first year may count towards your pathway. In Term Three you will revise and take exams for your remaining modules.

• CORE: Foundations, Skills and Debates
• Accounting for Business
• Foundations of Financial Management

• CORE: Global Environment of Business

Final Year

In Terms One and Two you will study one core module. You will choose six modules from a range of subjects either to generalise or to focus on your chosen pathway. In Term Three you will revise and take exams for your remaining modules.

BSc Management with Placement Year

All applicants, regardless of their visa requirements, are required to show that their ability to understand and express themselves in both written and spoken English is sufficiently high for them to derive full benefit from their degree course. The level of competence required depends on what type of degree you wish to study. Many applicants can demonstrate this through a satisfactory level of achievement in, for example, GCSE English Language or the English courses within the International Baccalaureate.

Applicants whose academic qualifications meet the University’s admissions requirements, but whose English language qualifications are not accepted as equivalent, may be offered a place at Warwick conditional on an acceptable English language qualification being achieved before they join the University. A number of English language tests are accepted; some of the most frequently offered ones are detailed below.

Please note that certain English tests (including IELTS and PTE) must be taken within two years and one month prior to the start of your course at Warwick. Applicants whose tests fall outside this timescale will need to retake a suitable English language test.

Applicants who require a visa to study in the UK may, depending on the circumstances, be asked to provide evidence of a secure English language test (e.g. IELTS for UKVI (Academic)), rather than an examination (such as International Baccalaureate English) due to the visa requirements set by the UK government.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE REQUIREMENTS FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS (2022 Entry)

If you do not meet the English Language Requirements for your course in full, you may still be eligible for the course on condition of:

• Meeting the English Language Requirements for our Pre-sessional English course, and
• Successfully completing the Pre-sessional English course
