Course description
Learning and Teaching
This course is normally a one year full-time programme based at our Digbeth campus.
A variety of learning and teaching opportunities will be available on your course, approximately 30% of your learning will include lectures, tutorials and classroom based learning, supplemented by workshop activities. Studying can include individual and group working.
Higher education courses also require students to undertake independent study and so approximately 70% of your studies will be through independent learning, research, reading and completing assessments. Independent study can also include working in the library or joining a study workshop at the College where you can gain support on study skills.
Assessment Most of your assessments are course work based, you will have one group assignment and only one exam. Presentations may be included and this could be in person or be set as a pre-recorded video that you submit for marking. Assessments are designed to develop skills and reflect aspects of industry and so could be for example a live project, a case study, report, and specific sector based documentation such as plans or project.
Where can I progress to next?
This course prepares you for the next steps in your professional and academic career. You could progress onto postgraduate study in business and management such as a Master's degree or seek employment in a business management role or graduate scheme.
Higher level skills will be a key requirement for employment in the future.
As the world becomes increasingly 'technology dependent', it is anticipated that the range of businesses emerging around STEM will grow, meaning that business and financial services will be extremely important to the UK economy.
By 2030, the UK will have a talent deficit of between 600,000 and 1.2 million workers for both the financial and business services sector and the technology, media and telecommunications sector, together with a deficit of up to 600,000 workers for the manufacturing sector (Korn Ferry, 2018).
