The course has recently been updated to more closely reflect the ever changing and complex environment in which businesses now operate. A major focus centres on the implementation of different functional strategies that enable businesses to be successful in the marketplace whilst also giving students the opportunity to gain a critical perspective of business behaviour through the study of topics such as corporate social responsibility and business ethics and values. Students will gain both important practical business skills used in the world of work as well theoretical knowledge, using business models, theories and techniques to support the analysis of current business issues. The course is very much holistic in nature, where the inter-related nature of business is covered. Topics such as digital technology, globalisation and the development of new international markets are covered throughout the course, emphasising the increasing importance of these developments on the business world. Both small and large scale UK focused and global multinationals are studied allowing an appreciation to be gained of the responses used by companies to gain a competitive advantage in the modern business world.
