Overview

As the modern business world becomes increasingly complex, understanding the fundamental way in which businesses and organisations operate – how they develop their strategies and take key decisions – is vital.

Our International Business Management programmes help you to examine businesses and organisations; understand their structures and workings, people and decision making processes; and then relate the theory to actual business situations to prepare yourself for the real world. You’ll develop valuable communication, problem solving and teamwork skills, and our programmes also offer relevant hands-on experience.

All International Business Management degrees provide a strong grounding in the principles of modern business management and also introduce the more functional areas of business and management.

International Business Management with Human Resource Management students take a range of specialist HRM courses such as Human Resource Management, Employment Law and Critical Approaches to Management. This specialisation allows students to tailor their degree to meet their career needs and aspirations.

*The degree of Master of Arts (MA) is an undergraduate Honours degree, awarded by the ancient universities in Scotland and the UK including Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, St Andrews, Cambridge and Oxford. At other universities in Scotland and the UK, undergraduate degrees in the arts, liberal arts, humanities or social sciences are awarded as Bachelor of Arts (BA).
