BSc Business and Management
About this course
Business and management is the study of how organisations are built, led, and made to work. It combines analytical rigour with practical application, drawing on economics, strategy, behavioural science, and organisational theory to address the real challenges that firms and other organisations face every day. A well-designed degree in the subject develops both the technical knowledge employers value and the adaptability to apply it in contexts that are constantly changing. At the University of Exeter, this three-year full-time programme covers the full range of contemporary management, equipping you with expertise in leadership, strategy, marketing, finance, operations, and sustainability. The degree is enriched by Exeter's strong relationships with industry and its record of placing students in meaningful professional environments. The programme includes a sandwich year, which gives you the opportunity to work in a real business for a sustained period, building commercial experience alongside your studies. There is also a year abroad option and supported work placements, both of which add international and professional dimensions to your degree and strengthen your employability. The typical entry tariff is 152 UCAS points. Graduates of business and management degrees at Exeter go on to careers across a genuinely wide spectrum: consulting, marketing, finance, human resources, technology, entrepreneurship, social enterprise, and public sector management are all well-represented among alumni. The combination of academic grounding and practical experience that the sandwich year and placement options provide is particularly valued by graduate employers. Many graduates also pursue postgraduate study, including specialist master's degrees in areas such as marketing, finance, or supply chain management, or MBA programmes once they have some years of professional experience behind them. Exeter's reputation and industry connections add real strength to a degree that is already built for employability.
