Understanding how an organisation is managed and funded is key to its survival and growth. And to succeed in business you’ll need a broad range of skills.

The BA Business and Finance has been developed in partnership with industry, employers and professional associations to meet the challenges and demands of modern business.

You will develop a clear understanding of the skills to successfully manage and organise a business. In addition, you’ll also gain core skills in finance to help you ensure that an organisation is run on a secure financial footing.

Our links to local and national organisations ensure that teaching and assessments focus on real companies and real issues that business managers are faced with.

The BA Business and Finance allows you to gain a part-exemption from professional accountancy exams. This means that if you go on to complete professional exams with ACCA or CIMA, it will take less time and money.
