Bachelor of Science (Hons) in International Business and Management

Program Overview

The BSc International Business and Management course is the only undergraduate course within the South Wales Business School where students can study abroad or carry out a work placement abroad as part of their actual degree. This means you have the opportunity to develop your personal, academic, and employability skills, by learning from new cultures, experiences, and people from across the globe.

Whether you are from Wales, another part of the UK, or an international student, you will conduct either an international study placement or an international work placement for a whole term during the second year of your course. Studying abroad also means you gain additional credits at an international university, so you could gain additional qualifications alongside your International Business and Management degree. The international study placements will be English speaking, unless students prefer to learn in another language. For example, if you choose to study with our partner in Paris at the highly accredited IPAG Business School, all of your lectures, workshops, and assessments would be in English.

We support students in choosing their international study placement, through our long-standing links with Higher Education partners from across Europe and the rest of the world. If there is a specific country or international university you would like to study in, we can guide and support you with this. We have an international team at the University who can also support you through the many other aspects involved with working or studying abroad, such as the visa process, acquiring the correct insurance and on opportunities to apply for additional funding that support student exchanges. There are also grants available to support study abroad placements, and your eligibility for these is assessed on an individual basis – and would not impact on your student loan agreement. If you would prefer to work abroad, you will need to find your own international work placement, but we will support you with this alongside the University’s excellent Career Services Team (Opens in a new tab).

For students enrolling on to this course in January, please note that you will be required to enrol for the second year of the course in September (of the same calendar year), subject to successful completion of year 1.

Each year of study requires you to complete 120 credits, which are split between two terms.

Your first year of study on the BSc International Business & Management course – will include a broad base of business and management topic areas and provide a good foundation of knowledge for the duration of the course.

Your second year of study on the BSc International Business & Management course – will look deeper into some softer topic areas specific to international business. This is also when the placement will take place.

Your third year of study on the BSc International Business & Management course – is your final year of study. You will undertake your dissertation, which can be focussed upon an international business area you find most interesting and compelling. You will be allocated a supervisor who can support you along the way.
