BA (Hons) Business with Finance is a comprehensive degree designed to give you the confidence and knowledge to successfully enter the competitive graduate jobs market.
You will study a carefully crafted portfolio of modules, which have been selected to provide you with all the knowledge and skills to launch your career in finance related roles. Built on years of providing excellent business education, Business with Finance will build your awareness of contemporary business issues, strategic decision making, fundamentals of management and academic research methods.
Foundation Year
The Foundation Year is ideal if you have the interest and ability to study for a degree, but do not have the qualifications to enter directly onto the Business with Finance honours degree programme yet.
Once you pass the Foundation Year (level 3) you will progress directly onto the first year of the honours degree. If you are a full-time UK student, you will qualify for student financial support for the full duration of your course (subject to eligibility criteria).
You will study vital business principles, such as digital business intelligence, organisational behaviour and strategic management, while taking a financial pathway, which includes investment and finance management, financial risk management and corporate business finance.
Moreover, if you currently hold a HND or Foundation degree and wish to continue studying to achieve a full BA (Hons) degree, you can apply to join this degree in the final year.
