Bournemouth University
Bournemouth University (BU) has an international reputation as a provider of thought leadership and contemporary business education.
We’ve continued to establish strong business links with high-profile companies, provided expert opinion on a global basis and pushed the boundaries of knowledge, in finance, management, retail, tourism and events through our Research Centres.
In an increasingly competitive employment market, business skills are the key differentiator. It pays to think beyond the minimum satisfactory requirements and invest on your own professional development to stay ahead.
Our Business and Management Masters courses have been designed to give you the confidence and tools to enhance your career, change career direction or simply acquire up-to-date skills and knowledge of international business management, and a thorough understanding of the financial and economic environments in which businesses operate.
BU Masters degrees in Business and Management
We offer a range of full-time and part-time Business and Management courses including our flagship Master of Business Administration (MBA), with an option to study either full-time or part-time. Our MBA has been carefully tailored to provide comprehensive knowledge and skills in business and management, before extending into unique industry specialisms.
Our Courses
Facilities and Resources
Our impressive Executive Business Centre is home to many of our Business and Management courses, including the Bournemouth MBA. Located on the stunning South coast, the Centre is not just about offering high-spec lecture theatres, a contemporary e-library or the latest interactive technologies. It also breaks the barrier between the traditional university experience and working within a genuine business environment.
The Centre is a hub for expertise, information and consultancy, available to hundreds of businesses across the South of England. What better place to learn than where business itself is happening?
We have 24 hour open access computer centres and you will also have access to BU’s Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), myBU. It is essentially a website that gives access to learning materials, internet mail and discussion groups. It is also accessible externally, off campus.
