The BA Business Management 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 in the students preferred field and also develop analytical and decision-making skills. The BA Business Management with Finance (UCAS course code N1N3) degree is ideal for students who wish to gain a broad understanding of business while gaining an in depth knowledge of Financial Accounting, Management Accounting and Financial Management. This programme would ideally suit students who are interested in a career in accounting or finance roles within industry, rather than audit or accountancy practice. The programme especially suits students who intend to study CIMA after graduation. As there is a strong quantitative element to many of the core modules, this pathway will appeal most to students who have displayed an aptitude for mathematics and other quantitative subjects, in particular with the ability to apply mathematical concepts to solving practical business issues.

BA Business Management with Finance graduates often go on to work in a number of fields including accountancy, banking and insurance as well as positions within a wider business context. In the past we have seen students achieve successful careers as Management Accountants, Financial Accountants, Bankers, Financial Analysts and a wide range of careers related to finance and business.
