This is an interdisciplinary programme that allows you to specialise in key business areas, including supply chain, international business, entrepreneurship, marketing and the world of organisations. You’ll gain a deep understanding of key theories in your area of specialisation, and essential skills to design and undertake empirical quantitative or qualitative research.
