Business Management (Hons) University of East Anglia

Overview

At  University of East Anglia , we focus on evidence-based management, so you'll learn to pose questions and challenge assumptions and use evidence to make your own decisions and back them up. You'll develop quantitative and qualitative skills, learning how to deal with numbers and accounts, and how to interpret statistics, as well as how to manage people and resources. You’ll also gain experience working with others and presenting your findings and ideas. This is great practice for your career when you’ll need to not only develop solutions to problems but also persuade people of their validity.  

Ours is a highly flexible programme which, after providing you with a solid first year foundation, gives you the freedom to specialise in those areas of business that interest you most. There’s a great choice of subjects to focus on from marketing to talent development, from project management to law or entrepreneurship and many more. This course will deepen your overall business understanding at the same time as allowing you to keep your options open, until you choose where to focus.

Your combination of business acumen and interpersonal skills will make you a desirable addition to any team.
