Course summary
The four-year degree in Business Management with Spanish combines the main elements (modules and teaching) of the business management programme with the study of Spanish language and culture. The first year provides the core building blocks of management and business subjects, together with one module in Spanish. Year two develops from this base, giving equal weighting to the business and language subjects. You will continue to focus on core Business Management modules, whilst the language component concentrates on expression, translation and business language, providing the ideal preparation for the third year which is spent abroad.
