What this course is about

UCAS code: NC8N

Here's what University of Chester says about its Events Management with Business course.

We bring Business and Management to life with inspiring and real experiences. It’s a really competitive world in business today. We will equip you with much more than business knowledge. Your future employers are seeking skills that we develop with you. This means you leave us with experiences that should give you an edge at interview and in the workplace. We develop outstanding business professionals so that you can progress to a great career.

Our combined awards are focused upon developing your core abilities in your chosen majors, to support your distinctiveness in the workplace whilst also offering a more rounded approach to your development.

We also bring studying Events Management to life with inspiring and real experiences, interactive learning, access and exposure to the industry, and an opportunity to develop and manage your own events. This means that we develop outstanding, career ready, events professionals.

Volunteering is an important element of your course that will help you to really stand out when you enter the industry. We offer an exciting and diverse range of volunteering opportunities such as Chester Christmas parades, regional and national sporting events, music festivals and cultural events.

We will equip you with much more than events management subject knowledge. We will help you develop the extra skills that employers are seeking. The world of events management is highly competitive, diverse and dynamic, but you will leave us with experiences that will give you an edge at interview and in the workplace. We work closely with the Association of Events Management Educators (AEME) and with key stakeholders in the events industry to ensure content is up to date and industry relevant, and embeds key events management skills throughout the programme.
