Course details

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 People Management is delivered within the School of Business, Law and Social Sciences. It is designed to develop your knowledge of complex business and organisational practices in an increasingly internationalised and digital business world. The degree builds the key management skills necessary to deliver financially and environmentally sustainable organisational performance intertwined with HRM learning for people performance.

HRM is all about the management of people within the working environment. You will learn about the role HR plays in contemporary business such as recruitment and talent management and will develop the soft skills essential to extract the best performance from people.

This is a highly practical programme with employment at its heart. You will learn how businesses operate in the real world through expert guest speakers, projects tackling real-life business problems and off-site 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. The first two years of study cover a common curriculum including the basics of business management, accounting and marketing. As you progress, you can remain on Business Management or add a subject specialism. Aside from People Management, there are subject specialisms in Events Management, Law or Analytics.
