Course summary


Overview

Ever wondered how successful communication transcends cultural and linguistic barriers? Ever considered how global companies manage their diverse workforce? Or what makes for successful communication in business specifically? On our Global Communication with Business Management with a Placement Year degree, you’ll work with experts in the fields of business, language and intercultural communication to explore key global challenges. On this course, you’ll develop your understanding of global business and discover the essentials of business, marketing and intercultural communication, discovering how important global communication and intercultural awareness are today for individuals and businesses. You’ll have the chance to put your skills to the test in your third year by spending 9-12 months on a placement, gaining invaluable working experience and employability skills in a relevant area of your choice. Your intercultural training will invite you to challenge yourself and the cultural stereotypes that create barriers to successful communication. You’ll develop your understanding of how global businesses manage workforces with widely differing languages, values, and business practices. You’ll then have the chance to put your skills to the test by spending an optional semester abroad. You can also study a language, such as Arabic, BSL, Chinese or German, subject to availability. You’ll develop project management, interpersonal and leadership skills. You’ll be encouraged to form links with local businesses, schools and charities and will engage with them outside of formal teaching time. By applying your theoretical knowledge to a range of real-world situations, you’ll acquire a wide range of skills you need to succeed in today's globalized world. Our graduates move on to a wide variety of careers, including in business and marketing, the language services and media industries, and teaching. We're immensely proud of our language and communication graduate success stories!
