Course summary

In this four-year course, you will learn about international business and study internationally in English, spending a year at one of our partner universities overseas.

This degree is the same as the three-year BSc International Business Management during the first, second and final years. You will spend your first and second years in Bristol, and your third year abroad studying modules in business and management in English at one of our partner universities.

You will return to Bristol for your final year, where you will be able to choose from a wide range of optional units, enabling you to tailor your studies to your developing interests, and where you will undertake your dissertation: a piece of supervised individual research on a topic of your choosing.
