About this course
**Overview**
Numbers are vital to business, of course, but even more vital are the people involved. Our Business Management degree will give you the analytical tools that drive business strategy as well as the influencing and team building skills required to develop a successful business. On this course, you’ll become adept at this difficult balancing act, a skill that is highly prized in the business world.
At UEA, we focus on evidence-based management, so you'll learn to pose questions and challenge assumptions and use evidence to make your own decisions and back them up. You'll develop quantitative and qualitative skills, learning how to deal with numbers and accounts, and how to interpret statistics, as well as how to manage people and resources. You’ll also gain experience working with others and presenting your findings and ideas. This is great practice for your career when you’ll need to not only develop solutions to problems but also persuade people of their validity.
Ours is a highly flexible programme which, after providing you with a solid first year foundation, gives you the freedom to specialise in those areas of business that interest you most. There’s a great choice of subjects to focus on from marketing to talent development, from project management to law or entrepreneurship and many more. This course will deepen your overall business understanding at the same time as allowing you to keep your options open, until you choose where to focus.
Norwich Business School is a friendly and supportive school, with a lively and international cohort. You're in a region that’s safe and welcoming, with a thriving business innovation and enterprise community. All our teaching is informed by our world-leading research and real-world business experience. That means you’ll gain knowledge of the latest issues and debates facing industry and employers. We also believe that anyone can become a great manager, no matter what their background is, so our course is inclusive and welcoming to all. Our business school was ranked 14th overall for research quality in Business and Management Studies in the Times Higher Education REF 2021 Analysis.
After completing this degree, you’ll have all the skills you need to join any business, large or small. Your combination of business acumen and interpersonal skills will make you a desirable addition to any team. You might work in marketing for a multinational corporation, or use your drive in the human resources department of a lively start-up. You might even decide to start your own business. No matter what path you embark upon, the skills you learn during your business management degree at UEA will support you throughout your career.

Top job areas of graduates
The number of business studies graduates fell significantly last year after a long period of increase. But there were still more than 14,000 degrees awarded and this is the third most popular subject for new graduates. Because so many graduates get business studies degrees, you can find them everywhere in the economy, and very few jobs are completely out of reach for a good business studies graduate. Around 40% go into jobs in finance, sales, recruitment, management (particularly retail) or marketing. There is also a small (but well paid) group who take their technical skills into computing and IT. Thousands of graduates from this subject go into professional jobs every year, and average starting salaries are above the average for all subjects and particularly healthy in London where they top £25k. Graduates with good degree grades in business studies are much more likely to get good jobs, so don’t be complacent, and keep a close eye on your grades.
