Why this course?
Business Enterprise is about the creation of wealth, creativity and resourcefulness and exploiting change.
This course is designed for students who want to start a new enterprise, those who want to take over the management of an existing business and those who are aiming for leadership positions.
Following the recent global economic crisis, economics is more important and relevant than ever. Decisions on money, banking, interest rates, taxation and government spending affect us all, with global consequences.
Economics aims to understand the activities of the different agents in the economy – consumers, producers and the government – and how they all fit together.
Our degree will give you the ability to explain complex data in simple terms to different audiences. Youll also develop excellent mathematical, statistical and problem-solving skills.
Assessment
The majority of classes involve a final unseen exam which is normally at the end of the semester. This is normally supplemented by individual and/or group coursework.
Students normally have one opportunity to be re-assessed for a failed class. Exam resits normally take place during the summer.
