BSc Business Management with International Business
About this course
Business management with international business is a degree that develops the core competencies of a business education alongside a specific focus on the complexities of operating across national and cultural boundaries. Business management equips you to understand how organisations function, how strategic decisions are made, and how commercial value is created in competitive environments. International business adds the dimension of globalisation, examining how firms enter and compete in different national markets, how cross-cultural differences affect management, and how international trade, supply chains, and regulatory frameworks shape commercial life. At Birkbeck College in London, this part-time programme is designed to develop the knowledge, skills, and professional mindset that international business careers require. You will be introduced to the key functions of business in an international context, developing a global outlook and a practical understanding of how organisations and individuals operate across borders. Birkbeck's location in one of the world's great international business cities provides an unusually rich environment for studying these topics, with access to a diverse professional community and the full range of international institutions based in London. The programme is designed with employability at its core, ensuring that what you study is directly relevant to the international careers it supports. You will develop strategic commercial thinking, cross-cultural awareness, analytical skills, and the professional confidence to contribute in internationally oriented roles. Graduates pursue careers in international trade, business development, supply chain management, marketing, finance, and general management roles within multinational organisations and organisations with significant international exposure. Postgraduate study in international business, management, or a regional specialist field is a natural continuation.
