BSc Business Management Modern Languages
Course overview
The BSc Business Management (Modern Languages) is for those interested in both business management and modern languages. In the first year, students explore various languages through taster sessions, allowing them to experience Mandarin, French, Italian, German, and Spanish before selecting one language as their focus.
