The BA (Hons) International Business Management degree provides students with a truly international experience. The programme has been created in order to equip students with essential knowledge on the international business environment.

Students study with international students from over 30 different countries (including Britain!); you will learn an additional language (or possibly build on existing skills) and spend time working or studying in a foreign environment. The combination of these skills will set you apart from other graduates when embarking on your future career.

Placements
All UK students are expected to undertake an overseas placement. On the three year degree this will be a study placement in the second semester of the second year. The four year degree students will undertake one of the following in their third year:

  • Study business at an overseas institution
  • Working overseas
  • A combination of both study and working abroad
Students who do not study foreign languages normally spend their year in an English speaking country. Newcastle Business School has well developed links with highly respected institutions in France-Lyon, Grenoble and Nice; Germany – Stuttgart and Dusseldorf: Spain; Madrid, Grenada and Cadiz: North America – Atlanta; Mexico – Mexico City, Netherlands, Hong Kong and many more. Some institutions also provide the opportunity to obtain a nationally recognised qualification. In addition to studying or working outside the UK, the programme is delivered and managed by experienced international managers to cohorts of international students.
