Business Management is all about running an organisation to get the best out of all the resources available for the benefit of customers, employees, stakeholders, shareholders, and society at large. Successful businesses and their managers are the main drivers of Britain's economic growth and development. Highly skilled managers are needed to help the UK to expand and compete in the future. Students wishing to work in any aspect of a commercial enterprise need to have an understanding of business management. The Business Management top-up degree programme is designed to enable you to build on your current business qualifications to an honours degree level, which can really help with your career progression. This one year programme will draw together your experience and knowledge from your previous studies to examine the strategic and management issues involved in business. This honours degree in Business Management is delivered by a committed teaching team with extensive UK and International industry experience, in both the public and private sector.

Graduates of our honours degree in Business Management have benefited from their studies through developing their career with their current employer, setting up and running their own business or securing new graduate employment utilising their newly acquired skills and talents. The course also opens up opportunities for graduates to pursue a career in a general people management role. Many of our students progress on to further study to gain relevant professional qualifications once their career route is established. Students can benefit from the postgraduate courses offered at the University, in particular our MA in HRM which includes full membership of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, our Diploma in Management Studies (DMS) and MBA and our professional Marketing qualifications.
