Compare courses, Student Finance and flexible study routes before you apply.
A career-focused undergraduate degree for students who want a professionally relevant qualification they can study alongside work or family.
Working adults already in business roles, career changers moving into management, and mature students returning to education who need a structured but flexible pathway. Many students are in their 30s and 40s, balancing work, family and study.
Core business disciplines — management, marketing, operations, finance, strategy and leadership — plus transferable skills employers value: data analysis, professional communication, project planning and critical thinking.
A mix of coursework, group projects and presentations, with fewer traditional written exams than most people expect. This often suits mature students who prefer applied learning over exam technique.
