Business Management

Skills

Make your mark with the professional skills that matter most to employers.

In our rapidly changing world, employers need confident, independent thinkers, with the detailed knowledge and skills to adapt.

With our BSc Business Management, you’ll gain a solid foundation in the core aspects of corporate life, including:

• Managing people and logistics in a multicultural environment
• Accounting and finance
• Data analysis
• Marketing
• Consumer behaviour
• Operations, logistics and supply chains

You’ll learn how to identify and solve problems and to communicate your ideas with impact. We’ll also help you to increase your employability through annual Business Readiness modules.

As your project management and leadership skills grow, you’ll develop the commercial acumen, emotional intelligence, and self-reflection you need to realise your goals.

And you can put these skills into practice with an optional work placement after Year 2. Fully supported by our Placement Office, this is a chance to gain real-world experience before you graduate and get paid while you make valuable connections.

Learning

Belong, believe and achieve through our practical approach to business management.

More than just another Business School, we are a diverse learning community that values:

We deliver a modern, practice-based curriculum, with a focus on sustainability.

In high-spec facilities, like our Business Laboratory and new Bloomberg Trading Room, you’ll explore:

• Business ethics
• Responsible management
• Emerging markets

You’ll also take a Business Readiness module each year, designed in line with the CMI’s employability framework to help you develop key skills.

Our faculty of academic experts and working professionals will guide you through a blended mix of:

• Lectures
• Seminars
• Independent learning
• Online study skills

As our courses are taught over no more than three days per week, you’ll have the flexibility to take on paid part-time work, placements, or internships – gaining real-world experience before you graduate.

We apply world-leading research and the latest thinking to your studies to help you develop a global mindset. You can also gain international experience through an optional semester abroad, with Roehampton Abroad scholarships of up to £1,000 available to help with the cost.

Assessment

Benefit from assessments that prepare you for life beyond university.

You'll be assessed using a wide range of theory and practical assessments that replicate the world of business today. This includes coursework, reports, exams (on Accountancy and Finance modules only) and online tests. 

Other types of assessments include portfolio evaluation, case studies, critical poster, consultancy projects and using the Bloomberg terminal to track performance of a live asset. All of these methods will help you demonstrate the breath and knowledge you've learnt. 

Between Years 2 and 3, you can choose to enhance your practical work experience by applying for a year-long paid professional placement.
