Business Management (Accelerated)

Highly skilled management graduates are in big demand, and this accelerated BA (Hons) Degree in Business Management, which takes less than two years to complete, means you're gaining a qualification that will allow you to compete for the best roles. To give you an even greater head start, the course has been co-created with employers and delivers ‘hands-on’ experience. A dynamic curriculum not only builds specialist leadership skills, but also develops an understanding of other key business disciplines to take your career to the next level. Business Management degrees provide the greatest variety of career routes in national and international organisations, both private and public, as well as in small and medium-sized companies around the world. Some graduates also go on to start businesses themselves.

Well-qualified management graduates are highly sought after especially if your people and leadership skills are second to none. These skills are embedded throughout all modules within the course. You have the choice of optional modules in Finance, Marketing or Human Resource Management. You will also have the opportunity to further develop your specialism through the Work Based Learning and Dissertation modules.

Though the degree is delivered online in Blackpool, it’s actually awarded by Lancaster University, providing graduates with a UK top 10 university qualification. What's more, the course also gives you an opportunity to gain a highly respected Chartered Management Institute (CMI) qualification in Leadership and Management.

You will be taught by our friendly, professional teaching team, all of whom benefit from extensive management experience to support your future success. But don’t just take our word for it - our student satisfaction rating is a phenomenal 100% (3 year Management Degree programme) and our graduates are now employed by blue chip companies in the UK and overseas, such as Tesco, BAE Systems and the NHS.
