Our Business Management (top-up) programme is designed to build on your past experience, usually gained through study leading to a Foundation degree or a Higher National Diploma (HND), with a merit profile.
Over the course of a year, you consider the complexities and ethical implications of business strategies and emerging issues confronting organisations in an era of increasing globalisation and ethical, social and environmental concern.
You will develop your skills of initiative, critical thinking and resilience, favoured by employers.
