COURSE CURRICULUM

The Business Management with Finance degree at Brighton offers a comprehensive foundation in business principles while providing specialised financial knowledge. In the first year, all Business Management students follow the same core modules, covering key areas such as marketing, finance, business economics, organisational behaviour, entrepreneurship, and managing systems and operations. This broad introduction equips students with essential skills and understanding of business practice, preparing them for more specialised study from the second year. In year two, students begin to focus on finance alongside core business modules including international business analysis, business and corporate law, managing digital transformation, and finance theory. They can also choose from optional modules such as personal financial planning, economic theory, financial modelling, and applied business analytics, allowing them to tailor their learning to their interests and career goals. The final year emphasises professional development and advanced finance, with core modules in corporate financial management, strategy, managing teams, and developing professional practice. Students can further specialise through options in financial markets, international finance, fintech, banking, carbon accounting, and economics-related topics, as well as undertake a placement project. This degree develops both analytical and managerial skills, preparing graduates for versatile roles in business, finance, and related sectors, or further professional qualifications.
