Course Description

This International Business Management course aims to prepare graduates for a long and successful career in today’s global marketplace. With technology enabling people from all over the globe to connect and collaborate like never before, professionals who understand how different cultural and economic influences impact business are highly sought after by organisations around the world. You will study at our University of Salford campus close to Manchester city centre but as part of your business degree you will have opportunities for international projects, study and exchanges.

A further opportunity for International Business Management students comes through our partnership with TAMK University in Finland. Through the dual award option, you have the chance to apply to study part of your course at Tampere University of Applied Sciences and graduate with two degrees. Tobias Reynolds did it; he said:

“The dual degree with TAMK University is a great way of getting two degrees for less than the price of one and having two great styles of teaching, at home and abroad.”

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.

Our commitment to our students

Accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI).
