Entry Requirements
This innovative new course is the first of its type in the UK. This fantastic course is designed to both develop and enhance your knowledge and understanding of business development, but also to develop and equip you with the necessary skills to thrive in a career in this area.
Although this course has been primarily designed for students who have already studied marketing or a related subject previously, it is equally applicable for motivated students who wish to develop cutting edge expertise in business development.
Whilst theoretically robust with an emphasis on applied critical thinking and analysis, this unique Master's course is grounded in real world issues. Throughout the course, extensive use is made of real world scenarios and problems. The focus of this course is the development of the applied business development leaders of tomorrow.

The highlight of the course is the opportunity for you to study and research a topic area of your choice in the form of a dissertation. Previously students have based their dissertations on topics that will help with their career choices or subjects they have enjoyed studying during the course.
The varied subject modules are studied in a range of ways including seminars, tutorials and lectures and case studies. Modules have different teaching and assessment strategies with some based on individual work and others on group work. All teaching and assessment is grounded in real life situations and, where possible, live projects are incorporated into the teaching and use is also made of guest speakers. The development of your professional marketing skills is also a priority.
You can also request a printed prospectus by filling in our web form, and have it delivered to your address.
