Course description
Business Management and International Relations at Aberdeen is a perfect pairing, setting your solid grounding in business, management and organisations in the wide context of world events. This programme will improve your understanding of how organisations, states and governments interact against a constantly changing global and economic scene. This programme will give you an added international dimension to your excellent career prospects.
In Business Management, you will gain a wide perspective and thorough grounding in all areas of business, including skills in accountancy and statistics. Your knowledge will develop in the dynamic, international environment of our Business School of over 40 nationalities, in small classes, taught by leaders in the fields of business practice and theory, corporate finance, and organisational change. You will be supported by dedicated careers advisers. International Relations will set this in the context of our fast-moving world, as you study how organisations work, how states interact, what creates global wealth and poverty and why we have inequality, and the ever-present concerns of conflict and peace.
You will be taught by internationally renowned academics with strong track records in publishing international papers and articles and who appear regularly in the media, analysing and explaining world events from the viewpoint of their own area of expertise and research. You will gain the perfect foundation to add international career possibilities to your appeal to employers in all sectors, adding to all business sectors with options in local and national government, politics, journalism, and international development.
