Course summary

BA Business is Bangor Business School’s generalist degree. During your first year of studies, you will follow introductory courses that will expose you to the full range of subject areas in the School – Management, Marketing, Economics, Accounting, Finance and Banking. In your second and third years, you will then be able to choose freely from across the full range of Business School modules*, designing your own individual programme that meets your own needs and interests. By following this degree programme, you will develop a broad understanding of business organisations, their internal functions and the environments in which they operate. Many students will choose this degree programme if they are keen to gain a Business related degree but are unsure of which particular Business disciplines they would like to pursue. Students on this degree scheme will be able to transfer to any of our specialist degree schemes at any point during their first year of studies if they so wish. Alternatively, many students will stick with the BA Business programme in their second and third years, in order to follow a broader, more general, syllabus that they can tailor to their particular preferences. *Subject to pre-requisites and timetabling restrictions. Some modules (particularly in the third year) will require that you have studied certain other modules before. Your personal tutor, and other School staff, will help you plan your programme to meet these requirements, and to avoid timetable clashes.
