International applicants can also commence studying this course in January 2021.
**Why study it here?**
First, you gain a rock-solid grounding in how to run a successful and sustainable business.
Second, you get the option to switch direction after your first year, and delve deeper into a specialism that could be your career: accounting, marketing, sustainability, entrepreneurship, ICT…
Third, from day one you get to test your skills out in the real world through live projects, placements, internships and more.
Just like past students have for companies like Team GB, Pipers Crisps, Youngs, Bosch, Tesco, Microsoft, IBM and McCain Foods.
The foundation year is ideal to boost your skills and knowledge if you don't quite meet our academic entry requirements.
**Official Team GB partners**
Did you know that the University of Hull is the official University Partner of Team GB? Our united belief is that anyone, with the right opportunities ahead and a dedicated team behind, can achieve extraordinary things. This is what our partnership with Team GB is built on. Extraordinary is in you – and we’ll help you find it.
What does this mean for you? It means that whether you’re studying sports science, or marketing, or logistics, or healthcare, or engineering, you’ll be able to gain invaluable experience through this unique partnership.
We are working with Team GB to create opportunities for volunteering and work experience, to get involved with meet-and-greet sessions with Olympians, host on-campus talks from guest speakers and so much more. Some of our students recently helped Team GB athletes get their kit ready to compete in preparation for the Minsk 2019 European Games. It’s an extraordinary partnership, and you won’t find it anywhere else.
