Overview
The programme is designed to develop proactive graduates who will be equipped to gain appropriate and rewarding employment and make an immediate and on-going contribution within the workplace. As such they will be proficient in a team environment, have acquired skills that will enable them to reflect upon a problem or situation and identify appropriate strategies, and have the confidence and capability to allow them to develop as life-long learners.
The programme combines the multidisciplinary nature of business studies provision together with the development of specific IT skills. Rapid change in the role and skills of IT professionals is placing growing demands on new graduates in the workplace. Increasingly IT-related
degrees must comprise of business, technology, personal skills and project work.

Additionally, there is a focus on the development of students’ intellectual and practical skills that will support them both as learners and as future managers.
Distinctive Features:

develop self aware, reflective students who take responsibility for their own learning and demonstrate a responsibility to fellow learners;

provide assessment and project based tasks that allows students to apply knowledge and skills appropriately within an authentic context;
