Why study a Business Taught Master?
Our Business Taught Masters (BTM) programmes offer the chance to explore a new subject area that complements the skills gained in your undergraduate study and opens more career pathways. Whether you're from an unrelated field or a non-business background, a BTM enhances your degree by equipping you with essential business skills.
Beyond the classroom, students get to apply their knowledge through hands-on opportunities like consulting projects with local industry, preparing them for real-world business challenges.

As a student of the programme, you will have access to support for your study, life, and career, including a dedicated orientation when you arrive, pastoral care services, career development seminars, and additional certification opportunities.
