Business
Business links well with geography, history, languages, psychology mathematics and English but can also be taken with other subjects, as it does not necessarily require the support of another discipline. It is a popular choice at A-level.
Business and management courses in higher education are highly regarded by employers whilst there are an increasing range of degree apprenticeships available in business related fields with well-known organisations. Many institutions offer a combination of subjects, which enable students to choose the path that best suits their particular talents. There are several routes to achieving a business or management degree including marketing, accounting and finance, operations management and international business management. Many students combine a language with business to allow them to work overseas after graduation.
Today’s organisations value the subject knowledge and transferable skills which business students have to offer. A business qualification could lead to a career in management consultancy, accountancy or banking, marketing, advertising or public relations or human resources and recruitment.
