BSc Business Technology with Foundation Year
About this course
Business Technology is a field that addresses one of the most persistent challenges in modern organisations: bridging the gap between technical capability and business strategy. Organisations generate enormous value from technology, but realising that value requires people who can understand both the systems and tools that technology offers and the business context in which they need to be deployed. Business technology professionals translate between these worlds, leading digital transformation, implementing technology solutions and helping organisations exploit the possibilities that emerging technologies create. At Keele University this four-year full-time BSc with Foundation Year begins with a year that gives you the academic and technical foundations you need before entering the main programme. Across the degree you will explore a wide range of technologies and gain hands-on experience of applying them to real-world business contexts, alongside core business knowledge in areas such as leadership, management, marketing and strategy. The programme is designed to develop the skills that make graduates highly sought-after in technology-facing business roles, giving you the practical and conceptual tools to drive business innovation and success. Graduates from Business Technology degrees go on to careers in digital transformation, IT management, systems analysis, product management, business analysis, technology consultancy and project management across a wide range of industries. Many find roles in organisations that are implementing new systems, platforms or digital capabilities, where the ability to combine technical understanding with business acumen is essential. Others move into technology-focused business development, operations or marketing roles. For those wishing to continue their studies, the degree provides a good foundation for postgraduate work in information management, business administration, digital technology or related fields.
