BA (Hons) Business and Entrepreneurship

Many businesses rely on enterprise and innovation to manage uncertainty and ensure sustained growth. This course teaches you to become an effective entrepreneur and an innovative leader – with the insight to identify opportunities, implement new processes, harness new technology and transform global businesses into market leaders.

You’ll discover how to identify and develop a potential market opportunity, and drive sustained business growth – undertaking market research, making strategic decisions, managing uncertainty, exploring new technology, generating ideas and overcoming challenges.

Working with your classmates, you’ll construct a business plan for a new profitable offering and work together to refine it – for instance, analysing the cost implications of adding or subtracting certain features. By doing this, you'll gain a solid grounding in business principles and a deep understanding of how enterprises thrive: learning core competencies like finance, law, regulations, operations and organisational behaviour, while developing your specialist skills, creative thinking, strategic decision-making and ability to innovate, globally.

Learn in London – the UK's business hub

From global organisations to new start-ups, studying in London offers opportunities to engage with all aspects of the business arena – gaining valuable work experience and meeting influential industry contacts.

You'll join bootcamps, simulations and creative labs to learn to think like a leader and an entrepreneur, and work on live briefs commissioned by industry experts that will expose you to real-world business issues and give you the strategic skills to combat them.

You'll graduate with a practical, future-facing business education that's entrepreneurial, network-driven and tech engaged.

The integrated foundation year has been specially designed to give you the introductory knowledge and business skills needed to confidently progress to degree-level study.   

It's structured around discipline knowledge, with extra modules that introduce you to the transferable skills you'll need at degree level and beyond – giving you a solid grounding in both entrepreneurship principles and business skills.

Once you've successfully completed your Foundation year, you'll be able to progress to any of our business, social sciences, humanities or media undergraduate courses.

Building on this foundation, you’ll develop specialist knowledge in your chosen course.
