    Course Summary

    The University for the Creative Arts’ top-up BA in Business & Innovation Management is designed for those who already have some business experience and prior training, but need professional business and management skills to move up in their career within a creative industry. It is the equivalent of a 3 year BA degree, but you join the program at Level 6 instead of Level 4.

    You’ll come to understand the global economy in much greater detail, explore globalism and cultural diversity, and learn how today’s economic and business strategies are changing to meet the challenges these realities present.

    This program will make you ‘work-ready’, with all of the professional skills you need to take a position in a wide range of industries, start your own business in the creative space, or even go on to a Master’s or other higher degree program, either at UCA or anywhere in the world.

    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.

    Course Outline

    This BA course is delivered over 1 year at full time. You’ll be expected to jump right in with self-directed study, practice and research, and to deliver your final business project, demonstrating what you’ve learned.

    Modules include:

    • Business Strategy

    Here you’ll study the terminology and application of strategic decision making. You’ll explore strategy process, strategy content and strategy context.

    • Marketing Strategy and Planning

    You need a plan to enact that strategy. This module explores the actual creation and capturing of value from your customers and partner organisations.

    • Enterprise Sustainability and Business Ethics

    Here you’ll explore how to derive positive economic value from concepts like sustainable operations and ethical self-governance, and how to make them part of your strategy.

    • Entrepreneurship and Creativity

    Here you’ll study creative approaches to entrepreneurship generally as well as the factors which define a successful enterprise in the creative industries.

    • Business Research

    Here you’ll learn to research business topics and analyse the data to arrive at useful conclusions.
