Business Management with Law

Course description

Businesses face an ever-changing landscape of shifting markets, business models and emerging technologies. Highly developed business management skills are integral to successful and sustainable organisational performance.

The BA (Hons) Business Management with Law is delivered within the School of Business, Law and Social Sciences. It is designed to develop your knowledge of complex business and organisational practices. You will learn the key management skills to become a professional manager in a digital world.

With law as a chosen specialism you will build up a specific understanding of how legal frameworks impact on business at every level. You will learn how to apply best practice law inside business including intellectual property law, employment law and EU law.

This highly practical programme has employment as its focus. Through our outstanding industry links, you will find out how businesses really operate through expert guest speakers, projects tackling real life business problems, work placements and offsite visits. You will work on projects with nationwide organisations such as the IBM Business Challenge and be encouraged to undertake a work placement and overseas study opportunity to broaden your horizons.

Business degrees at Abertay are inherently flexible and provide you with the ability to tailor what you study to your own interests and career aspirations.
