BSc Geography with Business Management
About this course
Geography and business management make an intellectually powerful combination, and Queen Mary University of London describes this programme as the principal UK degree exploring how geography shapes business, from global supply chains and labour markets to the environmental pressures reshaping economies and infrastructure. That is a substantial claim, and it reflects something genuinely important: that business decisions are always made in places, and that the spatial and environmental dimensions of commercial life are increasingly difficult to ignore. This four-year full-time programme develops your understanding of both the physical and human dimensions of geography and the analytical and strategic competencies of management. You will study economic geography, urban development, globalisation, environmental systems, and the geography of trade and investment alongside strategy, marketing, finance, and organisational behaviour. The combination trains you to see business through a geographical lens and geography through a commercial one, which is a distinctive and practical intellectual position in a world where supply chains, labour markets, and environmental risks are central to how organisations succeed or fail. The typical entry tariff is 152 UCAS points, and the degree is studied full time over four years. You will develop skills in quantitative analysis, GIS, spatial data, and business analytics that are valued across a wide range of professional contexts. Graduates go on to careers in management consultancy, logistics, international business, financial services, urban planning, environmental management, public policy, and sustainability roles in the private sector. The combination of geographical thinking and management competence is particularly well suited to organisations grappling with global supply chains, location strategy, and environmental change. Further study options include postgraduate degrees in geography, business, urban planning, and environmental management.
