Course Overview

This four-year degree course is designed for students who wish to pursue a career in business and law but may lack traditional entry qualifications. The programme begins with an intensive foundation year (Year 0), which focuses on developing essential academic, digital, and study skills, alongside exploring social science themes to prepare you for the subsequent three years of undergraduate study. During the foundation year, you will benefit from sessions with tutors from your chosen degree, ensuring a smooth transition into the main programme. Following the foundation year, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of business management, including marketing, strategy, and consultancy, alongside key legal areas such as company law, employment law, and consumer rights.
