In this four-year degree, you will learn about international business and spend a year abroad at one of our partner universities studying in the host language.
The first year is the same as the BSc International Business Management course. You will learn basic concepts and tools - both qualitative and quantitative - for the study of management in the global business environment, and you will also study an appropriate modern language unit.
During your second year, you will study International Business topics in more depth, and you will have the opportunity to select from a range of optional units. We will also help you to deepen your understanding of research design, data collection and data analysis; including analysis of survey data, interviews and observation in organisations. You will also select an advanced study option in your modern language of choice.
You will spend your third year abroad studying units in business and management in your chosen language at one of our partner universities. To find out more about studying abroad, visit the Centre for StudyAbroad.
You will return to Bristol for your final year, where you will be able to choose from a wide range of optional units, enabling you to tailor your studies to your developing interests, and where you will undertake your dissertation: a piece of supervised individual research on a topic of your choosing.
For the first 2 years of this course, teaching is delivered on the Clifton Campus where you will gain a thorough understanding of your subject.
For the final year of the course, teaching will be delivered at the Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus, opening 2026, where enhanced links with businesses will provide students with real-world knowledge, networks and skills to succeed once you graduate.
