Business Management

Why study Business Management at Dundee?

The content of our two business management degrees is topical and relevant. We want you to understand the nature, power and limitations of various business and management techniques; how management and non-management workers can influence a business' performance; how business and other types of organisations can help society to function and address society's problems.

Our teaching staff are leading experts in the areas of business and management. In addition, they are committed to providing a stimulating, supportive, friendly and well organised environment for students.

Most of our staff have business experience as well as an academic background. They have strong links with companies as well as professional bodies. Thus, the degree content is informed both by innovations in practice and developments in academic thinking.

What's so good about business management at Dundee?

Throughout the degree guest lectures are given by managers and specialists from a variety of businesses and other organisations to help you appreciate how business management issues are handled in the real world.

In addition, students on the BSc Business Management degree have the opportunity through the Business Management Internship Module, to participate in a short placement with a local firm in order to see how the business management skills that they have studied can be used in practice. If they so wish, they can use this experience as material for and elective Dissertation module in their final year of study.

Student visits

Outside visits are also organised to help you appreciate how business management issues are handled in practice.

For example, depending on your module choices you might visit financial institutions in Edinburgh and London or companies within the Tayside area.

Business Management and Business Management (Accounting & Finance) students may also apply to spend up to a year during the 2nd year of their degree in Canada or North America on the Transatlantic Student Exchange scheme, or in Europe as part of the Erasmus programme. You can also apply to spend a semester in Australia, Hong Kong or New Zealand.
