International Business Management

UCAS Code: N120

Course Description

The Management School has introduced a new degree in International Business Management starting in September 2011. This degree, which is based on our BA in Business Management, includes an international dimension.

After the broad introductory first year subjects, students spend the second year studying at a University in another country taking a range of subjects as approved by the Management School. The final year of the degree concentrates on international aspects of business and the Management School's collaboration with the School of East Asian Studies means that there are also some specialist modules in aspects of East Asian business. The degree is a blend of the theoretical and the practical, with the practical side explored through the extensive use of case studies, and specific project work in a number of modules.
