    Course Summary

    Newman University’s Business Management BA degree will include all of the skills you’ll need to run a business, business unit or team, but will also stresses something that few other Business Management programs in the UK address in any real depth – the way to manage a business according to real values and ethics, not merely compliance with standards.

    The degree program includes a Work Based Learning module. As a part of this, you’ll get the assistance of the university to engage in a work-based placement. There you will garner a wide range of practical skills as well as an important new perspective on your field of specialty. No matter what your intended career pathway, real world work experience looks great on your CV and can help you build a professional contact network. Both will improve your employability dramatically. You’ll also enjoy the benefits of Newman University’s small class sizes.  

    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.
