Business Management and Geography BA

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT

Business management is fast-paced and ever-changing. Organisations face major shifts and complex challenges both in the UK and worldwide. Students entering this field must understand the business environment and how organisations function in uncertain situations. The Business Management degree at Liverpool Hope University examines small to medium-sized enterprises as well as global multinational companies—public, private, and not-for-profit. It focuses on business principles, organisational dynamics, and management processes.

Liverpool Hope Business School, holder of the prestigious AACSB accreditation, has a strong reputation for delivering a high-quality business management course that shapes students with solid theoretical knowledge. Students gain a thorough understanding of modern business practices, supported by the latest research. Our connections with local and national businesses, alongside professional bodies, ensure you are well-prepared for the job market.

This comprehensive business management degree lets you explore how businesses operate and their ethical and social impacts on communities. A dedicated, student-focused team will help you understand this context while building the critical and transferable skills employers seek.

A standout feature of our Business Management programme is the YE (Young Enterprise) initiative for all second-year students. This innovative project ties together the entire curriculum. Each student joins a business start-up team, where they collaboratively establish and run a new legal business. This hands-on experience of starting a “real-life” business is often cited by students as their favourite and most valuable part of the degree.

GEOGRAPHY

Geography is the study of the world around us, exploring how the physical environment works, how people interact with each other and with the environment, and how landscapes evolve. This Geography degree provides a dynamic and integrated approach to understanding both physical and human processes, as well as environmental conservation and management. The Geography course allows you to focus on areas ranging from physical and environmental to human geography, developing a broad and enriched understanding of the planet.

Studying Geography equips you with a wide range of skills, making this Geography degree highly valued by potential employers. You will learn from an enthusiastic team of geographers and environmentalists with diverse research interests, benefiting from Liverpool’s unique setting, which provides excellent examples of economic, social, and environmental regeneration, alongside stunning upland and coastal landscapes.

A Placement Year option is available within the Geography course, offering practical work experience to complement your studies and prepare you for future careers.
