Business Strategy, Operations and Enterprise

We focus on all aspects of business and management in each of our programmes. Offering specialisms in operations and entrepreneurial activities, we can provide expertise on a range of consultancy programmes and maintain strong links with The Retail Institute, The Leadership Centre and the Independent Food and Drink Academy. We place emphasis on applied learning, using consultancy projects across various programmes to enable our students to increase their experience of working with businesses into professional practice. This is supported by our guest lecture series from high profile speakers.

We work to establish excellent links with industry employers and professional bodies through guest lectures and real life consultancy projects. We offer many opportunities for students to develop their skills throughout our courses by offering a number of activities including worldwide placements , business competitions such as the IBM Business Challenge and the NIBS competition in Texas and many volunteering opportunities both in the UK and overseas.

We have been a Centre for the Institute of Directors (IoD) Director Development Programmes for over 20 years. Our MSc Supply Chain Management and Logistics is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply and the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport Studies.
