BA (Hons) Business Management with Foundation Year

Course Overview

Embark on a transformative academic journey with our BA (Hons) Business Management with Foundation Year programme. This innovative four-year programme is designed for students who are eager to build a solid foundation in business fundamentals before diving into more specialised coursework. The programme combines a comprehensive introduction to key concepts in management, finance, marketing, and entrepreneurship with opportunities for hands-on learning and industry engagement.

The foundation year serves as a springboard for students to develop essential academic skills and knowledge necessary for success in higher education. Through a blend of foundational courses in business and management, students acquire critical thinking, communication, and study skills that will serve them throughout their academic and professional careers. They also gain exposure to key business concepts and principles, laying the groundwork for deeper exploration in subsequent years.

Building on the foundation year, students progress to the core curriculum of the BA (Hons) Business Management programme. Over the next three years, they delve into advanced topics in business management, including organisational behaviour, strategic planning, financial analysis, marketing strategy, and innovation management. Through a combination of lectures, seminars, case studies, and practical projects, students develop a comprehensive understanding of business dynamics and learn to apply theoretical concepts to real-world scenarios.

At our institution, we recognise the importance of bridging the gap between academia and industry. Throughout the programme, students have ample opportunities to engage with industry professionals through guest lectures, industry projects, internships, and networking events. These experiential learning opportunities not only enhance students’ understanding of business concepts but also provide valuable insights into current industry practices and trends. Students also have the chance to participate in study abroad programmes and international exchanges, gaining a global perspective on business management and expanding their professional networks.

Our BA (Hons) Business Management programme offers students the flexibility to tailor their studies to suit their interests and career aspirations. With a wide range of elective courses and specialisation tracks available, students can choose to focus their studies on areas such as marketing management, financial analysis, human resource management, or international business. By specialising in a particular area, students can develop expertise and skills that are highly sought after in their chosen field, enhancing their employability and career prospects.
