Course overview

About your course The BSc (Hons) Business with Digital Marketing at Liverpool John Moores University offers a blend of a high quality business degree combined with cutting-edge marketing modules. Foundation Year (Level 3) The Foundation Year is ideal if you have the interest and ability to study for a degree, but do not have the qualifications to enter directly onto the Business with Digital Marketing honours degree programme yet. Once you pass the Foundation Year (level 3) you will progress directly onto the first year (level 4) of the honours degree.

If you are a full-time UK student, you will qualify for student financial support for the full duration of your course (subject to eligibility criteria). Level 4 study onwards This programme is part of the 'Business with' suite, which allows students to transfer to a different specialism, such Finance, International Business Management or Media Communications, at the end of level 4 year of study. Another advantage of this degree is the optional sandwich year in which you spend 48 weeks on a paid work placement in the UK or overseas.

This will enable you to put into practice many of the concepts and techniques developed in years one and two as well as developing your personal skills and enhancing your CV. Students who complete the placement year in the School's more established degrees tend to experience a significant improvement in their academic performance and many go on to gain first class honours degrees, often returning to work for their placement company after graduation. Liverpool Business School has partnerships with business schools at universities and colleges across Europe, in the USA and in China.

Students on this programme are able to spend a semester in their second year at a partner university abroad as part of their studies. Students can also choose to spend an additional year of study at one of our partner universities between the second and third years. All study abroad opportunities are in English.

There are also many supported opportunities for activities at partner universities during summer vacations and Liverpool Business School provides places on language skills courses. Live Consultancy Project Through LJMU's Liverpool Business Clinic, students have a unique opportunity to work on real client briefs with local organisations putting academic theory into real world practice. This live consultancy project replaces the traditional final-year dissertation offered on some degrees.
