Ignite Your Entrepreneurial Potential

Our BA (Hons) Global Business and Entrepreneurship with Foundation Year is more than just a degree; it’s a strategic roadmap for your future. The course aims to equip you with the necessary foundations to enhance your entrepreneurial capabilities, helping you transform concepts into viable business ventures.

From identifying promising market opportunities to developing the tactical skills required to scale a business, you will learn through industry insights and real-world simulations. You will explore the theory and practice of entrepreneurship across various contexts, understanding the critical roles of strategy, innovation, and risk management in modern business models.

The inclusive Foundation Year (Year 0) is specifically designed to build your academic confidence and research skills, ensuring you have a solid platform before progressing to the full Honours degree levels. This pathway is ideal for those returning to education or those who do not meet the standard entry requirements for a three-year degree.

"This course acts as a blueprint for the future. You will learn to think like a manager, identifying value where others see risk."
