Northumbria University

Here's the BIG Picture

You’re ambitious, career-focused and you’re not afraid to work hard to get what you want. A business degree can help push you in the right direction. Whether you want to be your own boss or an integral part of a winning team, studying business at university gives you the tools to apply successful business know-how to almost any sector.

Most sectors, industries and organisations are related to business in some way so it’s no surprise that there’s lots of variety when it comes to business related to degrees. Studying business generally through degrees like Business and Management and Global Business Management can give you a great foundation for your future, offering a broad discovery of all things relevant to the industry. Whereas, choosing to study a specialist business programme like Finance and Investment Management, Economics or Entrepreneurship allows you to become an expert in more niche aspects of a business.

Newcastle Business School has everything you’d expect from a globally-recognised business school. Our purpose designed academic space contains exceptional classrooms, lecture theatres, IT labs, postgraduate suite, social spaces, exhibition spaces and more. The corporate hub is a great space where we work with businesses and partners.
