Course details

Course description

Business Management and Gaelic at Aberdeen is a great study combination, adding to a thorough grounding in management and organisations with an in-depth study of Gaelic, Scotland’s oldest living language, and its origins and culture. The language, perspective and skills you will develop will give an extra advantage for a wide range of career options, especially with a Scottish or international dimension. In Business Management, you will gain a wide perspective and thorough grounding in all areas of business including skills in accountancy and statistics. Your knowledge will develop in the dynamic, international environment of our Business School of 45 nationalities, inspired by staff who are leaders in business practice and theory, financial markets, corporate finance, and global economics. You will benefit from small classes and the support of dedicated careers advisers.

Gaelic is an area of particular strength at Aberdeen. We have been teaching Scottish Gaelic (Gàidhlig) and culture for one hundred years, led by teachers and researchers passionate about Gaelic, and whose work directly influences Scottish policy on keeping Gaelic alive, healthy and important in Scotland today.

Our students and staff play an important role in the Gaelic-speaking community in the north of Scotland through clubs, activities, networks and organisations. The skills you will gain through this combination will add to your strong appeal to business employers with additional career options for graduates fluent in Scottish Gaelic including teaching, Gaelic development, teaching, arts management, and media.
