Course Description

Involving a combination of business management and law modules, studying Business Management with Law is a fantastic opportunity for ambitious individuals to prepare for a wide variety of managerial careers. Graduates who understand the legal needs of organisations, and how regulations impact on their operations, have a marked advantage when entering the world of business. In today’s fast-paced and changeable business landscape, employers are looking for high-calibre graduates with ambition, applicable skills and industry knowledge. Studying Business Management with Law helps you develop an advanced understanding of business management and legal disciplines as well as the professional skills required for success across a variety of sectors. The Foundation Year of the four-year programme aims to provide an understanding of the key subjects in business to meet the prerequisites for study on the associated degree programme. The key areas of study will be effective communication and study skills combined with key subjects in business. You will be introduced to basic theories and concepts within the disciplines to provide a basic knowledge in all related subject areas. The programme will introduce you to essential areas of business necessary for progression onto business, accounting or law degrees. You will learn how to apply business concepts to real-life organisations and develop communication, IT and study skills. Following completion of the Foundation Year, you will progress on to year one of your selected degree for the remainder three years of your course (four years if you are choosing to do the professional placement year).

All our undergraduate business courses are available with:

  • Placement Year - on the placement year option, you will not pay fees to the University and will earn a wage for the work that you do.
  • Foundation Year – start with the fundamental areas of business and the key skill you need to study at University level.
