BA (Hons) International Business and HRM (3rd year entry)
This is a business degree with a distinctive international perspective and all the teaching and support you need to graduate ready for success.
A direct entry degree, the International Business programme is suited to those with an existing business and management foundation including finance, economics, HRM and marketing. This two-year degree course provides you with a greater emphasis on the international, cultural, sustainable and ethical context of business.
Joint Degree Options
BA (Hons) International Business can be studied on its own or in combination with a specialist subject that will help you match your degree to your career aspirations. A specialism in Human Resource Management or Tourism can be selected to provide named degrees in either specialism.
Assessment
Our approach to learning, teaching and assessment is tailored to the needs of international businesses. We adopt a wide range of learning and teaching methods to ensure that not only will you gain the necessary knowledge and understanding of the international business world, but also develop your intellectual and personal skills.
Assessment strategies involve traditional approaches such as exams and essays but also include more contemporary forms of assessment which are work related to prepare you for the workplace's style of reporting (for example, presentations/reports) or use digital technologies and mobile devices.
Teaching Methods
The learning and teaching methods we use ensure that the programme is both vocationally relevant and academically challenging. Our approach is student-centred, practical and relevant to the needs of the student and employers. We've moved the focus to a more independent learning approach, where you will be encouraged to generate and critically evaluate theory and practice.
As well as the traditional lecture, seminar and workshop formats, we adopt a multi-platform approach to learning that includes a wide range of supporting material, including podcasts, webinars (internet-based seminars), discussion boards and independent (including web-based) study. In tutorials, we encourage students to participate and contribute to the learning environment through discussion and group work.
