• Equivalent to Year 3 of a BA undergraduate degree, this course at the Business School for the Creative Industries enables students to ‘top-up’ an existing qualification such as a foundation degree or an HND.
  • Students will join us at level 6 with their previous knowledge and accredited learning, achieving a greater level of independence with self-managed research, study and practice. In the Marketing Strategy and Planning unit, students will develop knowledge and understanding of tactical decision-making, while learning how to capture and create customer value at a strategic level.
  • As ethical behavior and corporate social responsibility come to inform the way consumers think about businesses, the program introduces the concept of business ethics and develops student’s ability to examine its relevance to business objectives and responsibilities.
  • In the Entrepreneurship and Creativity unit, students will get an overall insight into the enterprise as they investigate the factors that underpin successful entrepreneurial activities and explore issues related to individuals, as well as small and family businesses.
  • The final project will allow students to develop independent inquiry skills as they complete a sustained research investigation in an area they are interested in. Overall, the course will develop their ability to weigh up ethical and intellectual considerations, and build on the commitment to becoming a business professional.
  • Throughout the year, the focus will be on learning through activities that enable students to practice, exhibit, and develop their confidence in the enterprise.
