Course Highlights

The International Business course offers aspiring and developing managers the opportunity to gain valuable knowledge, skills and understanding of International Business.

Understanding the principles and practices of business management enables an aspiring or developing manager to make better quality decisions, enabling improved personal and organisational performance.

The course will introduce you to management tools and techniques that will enhance your business management knowledge. We combine academic study with workplace application, so you will get many opportunities to understand how to manage and make management decisions.

The use of case studies will give you the chance to develop valuable skills and understanding that will provide you with a strategic appreciation of the many facets of business management. Our tutors encourage discussion in class, so that you can gradually learn to form, express and defend your own opinions.

Guest speakers from industry are also invited into class to share their experience with you, enabling you to appreciate the real-world application of academic theory. In association with the course, there are opportunities for you to apply for an internship.

The Professional Project MSc is your chance to get the experience you need to stand out to graduate employers and make a difference by solving real global business challenges and demonstrating practical application of your learning. Prepare for the future by reflecting on your experience and the enhanced skills that you have gained.

In the first year you will have help from the University to find a professional project whilst developing your expertise in the taught modules of your degree. You will then spend your second year working on a client-led project, getting the chance to work with industry professionals and building your contacts.

Students need to find and secure their own project, supported by the University. A preparation module will also help you to get ready for your project and develop your professional skills.
