Business: Finance, Economics, Management and Entrepreneurship (Streatham, Exeter & Penryn, Cornwall campuses)
The future is dynamic, complex and hyper-connected and Business permeates all aspects of life. The Business School subject activity strand covers a wide range of real-world issues that impact upon our everyday lives. We will guide you in exploring how people make decisions; the practical applicability of our subjects to jobs; and how business practices can be sustainable.
You will be taught in a mixture of lectures, seminars and groups by academics from our three main Business School departments: Finance & Accounting, Management and Economics, and also by experts working in related departments, such as Entrepreneurship and Liberal Arts. You will be expected to attend sessions on the Exeter, Devon and Penryn, Cornwall campuses.
