The aim of the course is to provide students with an international outlook on business and an understanding of the particular demands and restrictions of conducting and managing business globally. On this course students will develop advanced, specialised knowledge and skills across a broad range of business and management subjects, developing knowledge and understanding of international organisations, their management and the changing global external environment in which they operate; thus developing a strategic overview of business and organisational issues.

The course will prepare students for a career in business and management by encouraging the development of specific business skills, together with improved self-awareness and the personal development required to progress on to international careers in management positions, as well as promoting positive and critical attitudes towards change and enterprise.
