Working across multiple countries is an everyday reality for most businesses. In an ever-increasing global environment, studying business from an international perspective is a must for today's business graduates. To be successful in business, you need to be capable of operating effectively in a globalised world and to understand the complexities that underpin the factors of internationalisation: connectedness, boundaries, regulations and cultures.

Do you aspire to be a leader and decision-maker in an international business? If so, this course will give you an understanding of business management practices all over the world and prepare you to work in global organisations.

It includes hands-on, practical experience through working on real business problems, consultancy projects with real clients and opportunities for internships.

The experiences you'll gain will help you establish a business network and stand out from the crowd when starting your career. You'll learn from academic tutors, senior people and experts from industry and each other.

Within our state-of-the-art simulation suites, our children's nursing students can further develop the skills required to care for children and families in a safe environment, which closely mimics a health care environment (hospital and home). Family role players are central to this learning experience.
