Business
Management MSc (for non-business graduates)

This degree is designed to improve the employment prospects of non-business graduates. More specifically, the main vocational objectives are to develop students’ basic functional business knowledge and skills, enabling our graduates to contribute quickly and purposefully to the running of a business.
We train non-business graduates in the broad, core aspects of business management whilst allowing for a deepening of ability in specific areas. Knowledge and skills are further developed within the compulsory Business Analysis and Information Systems and Management modules, plus three other optional modules.
