The Business and Management programme is an ideal choice if you are looking for a degree that builds on your previous study and offers completion of an Honours degree.

It offers you the advantage of the opportunity to obtain Honours degree level proficiency in just one year of study.

Course Structure

In order to obtain the hallmark of an Honours degree student, the course has to be intensive. Total commitment will ensure the achievement of a good degree. A high level of motivation, therefore, needs to be maintained throughout the study period and the teaching team work closely with students to ensure that each student is able to achieve their maximum potential.

The content of the course builds on the base studies from a business or finance HND or Foundation degree, refining and extending through a series of carefully chosen subject areas.

The course encourages integrated and strategic thinking, enabling students to relate business activity to the overall factors which drive business. Students are encouraged to develop their interpersonal skills and an emphasis is placed, by the teaching staff, on the acquisition of effective management techniques.
