This course was previously called BA (Hons) Commerce & International Business (Top-up). We have now changed the course name to “BA (Hons) Strategic Management & International Business (Top-Up)”. Any students who have applied for the previous course name will be considered for the new programme. Please contact international@northampton.ac.uk if you have any questions.
Our course is designed to equip you with the skills and knowledge that are needed in today’s global business environment. It can help you to gain insights in how to navigate the complexities of the global business landscape and making you an attractive candidate for a wide range of roles in various sectors, including international marketing, global finance, cross-cultural management, and international trade compliance. Our curriculum emphasises strategic decision-making and critical thinking to prepare you to tackle complex challenges, with United Nation sustainable development goals embedded throughout the course.
Applications for the commerce and international business top up BA are welcomed from students with a HND (Edexcel, ABE, NCC) or Foundation Degree in Business (or overseas equivalent).
