    Course Summary

    A BSc in International Business from Kingston University is a great first step into a career pathway that could see you becoming a leader, executive or decision maker in a wide range of different industries, or even taking the helm of your own start-up with the full support of the university and its alumni network.

    You’ll learn more than just academic business skills, though. This degree includes a Business Readiness Program which will demonstrate to employers that you have the practical skills you need to jump directly into a career as well as the academic skills you’ll need to thrive. Other options include a semester abroad, a semester in work placement and an integrated foundation year.    

    This degree program is fully accredited by the EPAS, and employers will know to look for that as a sign that you have the international business as well as cross cultural leadership and management skills that you’ll need to thrive in almost any international business environment.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
