Program Overview

This course offers a comprehensive exploration of business and management, information systems, and computer science. Our flexible degree is delivered by academic and practitioner experts to leverage your strengths and fuel your career ambitions.

We use real-world examples to question the role of information technology in business. You will learn from our cutting-edge researchers how to manage teams and projects in IT-related business scenarios, apply IT solutions and evaluate digital knowledge. Throughout, you can attend TechSkills events and conferences and benefit from their networking opportunities with employers. Wide-ranging guest practitioner talks provide insight into the technology industry.

Your first year provides a strong foundation in information systems, business analytics and software development, and covers key debates in management, organisations and work. You can also study areas such as entrepreneurship, marketing and operations management.

In your second year, you move on to areas such as financial accounting, managing business information systems, knowledge and data, project management and software design. You can choose from options ranging from business ethics to human resource management and have the opportunity to conduct a piece of business research.

You spend your third year on industry placement, and TechSkills supports us in finding placements.

In your final year, you look at how to develop business information systems and how to manage change from a psychological perspective, and study options such as project management and ethical responsibility in business.
