BSc Business
About this course
Business management at degree level gives you the knowledge, skills, and professional dispositions that employers across every sector of the economy are looking for. It introduces you to the key functions of business, from strategy and marketing to finance, operations, and human resource management, and it allows you to decide which areas you wish to specialise in as you develop your studies. The discipline draws on economics, psychology, and organisational theory to build a rounded understanding of how commercial and public organisations work and how they can be improved. At Birkbeck College in London, this part-time BSc in Business Management is designed to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that employers seek, while offering the flexibility that makes degree-level study accessible to those who are already working or who have other significant commitments. Birkbeck's distinctive evening teaching model means that study and employment can coexist, and many students find that they are able to apply their learning directly in their professional contexts from day one. You will develop analytical, technical, and interpersonal skills alongside substantive business knowledge, building the commercial intelligence that distinguishes effective managers. Graduates from business management programmes go on to careers in management consultancy, marketing, finance, operations, human resources, project management, and general management across every sector. Many also pursue postgraduate study, including MBA programmes, specialist masters degrees, and professional qualifications in accounting, marketing, or HR. The combination of Birkbeck's reputation and the practical orientation of the programme makes graduates genuinely competitive in the job market.
