UCAS code: N1L1
Here's what University of Brighton says about its Business Management with Economics course.
Be better equipped to analyse market dynamics, anticipate changes and adapt to evolving economic conditions.
Specialising in economics will develop your analytical and quantitative skills.
You’ll analyse data, conduct research and interpret economic indicators, and gain skills in economic modelling, statistical analysis, financial analysis and forecasting. These analytical skills can be applied to many business functions, such as financial planning, market research, investment analysis and strategic decision-making.
After your first year, you can continue to specialise in economics, switch to our general Business Management degree, or change your specialism to entrepreneurship, finance, human resource management, law or marketing. You also have the opportunity to gain valuable industry experience and earn money with an optional placement year.
The University of Brighton is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) – an accreditation achieved by fewer than 6% of business schools globally.

They have a big presence at the uni and i regularly use their facilities, which are a more affordable option.

2nd year student
Brighton has a great uni life and is full of day and night time activities for students. There is a big culture of community and many venues do regular student deals. The only downside is most of these activities cost money, so they are not that accessible to students who struggle for money.

The tutors are always available for academic support and the student support team have been getting more involved recently to alert the students of how they can access welfare services. I have personally used the welfare services to help me afford rent.

We donu2019t have the best or fanciest facilities, again the arts uni seems a bit under funded, but we do have everything that we need on site - an art shop, a cafe, a restaurant, and a library all within accessible distance.

The course structure doesnu2019t suit me very well - we are more focused on learning as we go instead of b...
