Career Opportunities

Our business degrees give students a broad range of skills which are valued by a range of employers in the private and public sectors. In 2016/17, 97% of the School's graduates who were available for work reported they were in employment and/or further study within six months of graduation.

There is clear demand for business management graduates who are able to operate bilingually. This degree would provide a way of addressing this need through enabling you to develop first-rate Welsh skills, as well as gaining an understanding of the workplace in a highly respected Business School. The Welsh modules provide an opportunity for you to concentrate on your linguistic skills. Graduates of this award would be extremely attractive to Welsh employers in the private and public sector who are looking for competent workers in a bilingual workplace.

Indicators of employability by Career Services inspections at universities also suggest that in general a higher number of Welsh graduates are employed than the national average for language graduates and a number of other subjects. 309 companies in the private sector have agreed to be part of a scheme ‘Support Welsh’, whilst 537 public sector institutions have language schemes bound to recruiting bilingual staff. According to Future Skills Wales, the next few years will see an increase in employers demand for people with skills in Welsh across Wales.
