The 4 year BA Business Management including Foundation Year degree pathways are suitable for those students interested in a future career in many areas of business especially if a student selects a particular pathway. These degrees offer an excellent grounding in the main areas of business but also permit a level of specialism should a student have a preferred field. The focus of the degree is to supply theoretical substance to core areas of business but it also helps students develop analytical and decision-making skills. The BA Business Management including Foundation Year degree (UCAS course code N200) is ideal for students who wish to gain a broad understanding of many different areas of business without being limited by a particular specialisation. In Year 1, you will have the opportunity to study towards the KPA Level 3 Award in Employability alongside your degree. This Award is designed to build on what you learn in your degree in order to help you develop employability skills that are relevant for the workplace. This degree runs on a 2 day timetable, designed to let you study with more flexibility and make the most out of your time outside the classroom. After completion of Year 1, students have the option to specialise, should they wish to, in either Economics, Human Resource Management, Marketing or International Business. We also offer this course as a 3 year course.

This degree can be used as a platform into a wide range of business careers, including financial analysis, general management, human resources, events management and marketing management. Students who graduate from this degree often consider the following postgraduate options: * MBA * ACCA * CFA® * CIMA * ACA (ICAEW)
