MSc International Business and Entrepreneurship

This is one of the degrees pathways on the MSc International Business group of degrees. This degree allows you to focus on entrepreneurship as your specialism. Alongside the core international business modules, you will study areas to advise, prepare and support you in starting up your own business. Some of the modules are practical and will expose you to real life business start-up. From your core modules, you will learn to understand and analyse a range of international strategies and business relevant for the modern global economy. You will also engage with key areas such as global risk analysis, global financial markets, international trade and global investment.

You will study a core project module. As part of this, you can undertake a global internship, work on an independent project with an organisation, or work on your own project independently. When you start you join the 2 week Foundation Programme where you will learn more about all of our business conversion degrees and their pathways.
