Aston University
Aston St, Birmingham B4 7ET, United Kingdom

The Charter of the University outlines objectives appropriate to a technological university: "to advance, disseminate and apply learning and knowledge by teaching and research, for the benefit of industry and commerce and of the community generally: and to enable students to obtain the advantage of a university education, and such teaching and research may include periods outside the University in industry or commerce or wherever the University considers proper for the best advancement of its objects." The emphasis given to the placement year system, and the maintenance of strong links with industry and the local area, arise naturally from the institution’s history. We are very aware of the important role we have to play in society, and we ensure that our students, staff, communities and business partners succeed to their full potential, regardless of background.

Bachelor of Science in Business and Politics

 

Our BSc (Hons) Business and Politics course provides a comprehensive education in management and politics. You will gain a strong foundation in management principles and business concepts, including strategic decision-making. You will explore political topics going beyond the UK and Europe, covering Africa, Asia and North America. You will gain a profound understanding of political systems, economic policies and explore how business and politics intersect.

You will be taught by research-active staff who are experts in their respective fields and who constantly update their teaching based on the newest research findings.

The integrated placement year will bridge the gap between theory and practice, and provide you with invaluable real-world experiences in the UK or abroad, equipping you with the skills and insights you need for a range of professional roles within business, government or advocacy.
