Course summary

This course combines the academic content of our business and management degree with an overseas dimension that reflects the global nature of modern business.

This degree includes the core units from year one of the BSc Business and Management course. Students will gain a broad knowledge of management practice and organisation theory as well as finance. Students will also select a unit in either a modern language or marketing.

In the second year, you will continue with the BSc Business and Management core units. You will also select an advanced study option in a modern language of your choice plus another optional unit in business and management.

You will spend your third year studying business and management in the host language at a partner university. To find out more about studying abroad, visit the Centre for Study Abroad.

You will return to Bristol for your fourth year, during which you will complete a dissertation. This is a piece of individual research in which you can focus on a topic that interests you the most. You will also study several optional units in business and management.
