    Course Summary

    Queen Mary University’s BSc in Business Management combines a standard 3 year BSc degree with a foundation year. This is perfect for students who have no or poor A Level results, or those from an international background.

    This is therefore a 4 year program for most students. You will have both core and elective modules from the very beginning, and can control the course of your education (and eventual career) by selecting the right ones for you.

    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.
