Hi,

Graduating this November. Great course, couldn't recommend it enough.

First and second year are practical and diverse in terms of modules. Workload is intense, and group work is a huge facet. First year has 11 modules, and 2nd and 3rd is 6 modules per semester. Third and final becomes very intense, particularly final year. You focus on 5 key modules in case format as well as a research dissertation.

You'll cover everything from accounting to consumer research, as well as modules you'd typically imagine. Class size range goes from about 50 in 1st and 2nd year to about 20 in 4th year. Great opportunities throughout including working on projects with companies directly, study abroad, work placement and international business competitions.

I would say most people had jobs, if they were in any way focused, either before they left or within a few months. Sky's the limit with the course really.

I'd say go to the open day to get a feel for the place. But genuinely, people coming out of the course are heads above many peers as the diversity of topics and the practical nature of the course means you're ready to work!
